An Integrated Matching-Immunization Model for Bond Portfolio Optimization
Xidonas, Panos; Hassapis, Christis; Bouzianis, G.; Staikouras, Christos (2016)We propose an integrated bond portfolio optimization model based on the popular cash-flow matching and immunization strategies. The underlying mathematical program, not only minimizes the initial required capital for the ...

Long-run PPP under the presence of near-to-unit roots: The case of the British Pound-US dollar rate
Pittis, Nikitas; Christou, Christina; Kalyvitis, Sarantis; Hassapis, Christis (2009)Empirical tests typically provide evidence that the British pound-US dollar exchange rate and the relative wholesale price index contain exact unit roots and exhibit cointegration. However, the cointegrating vector is ...
