On the use of dispersion measures consistent with additive shifts.
Original language description
In financial literature we can find many alternative dispersion and risk measures that can help us to identify a proper investments. However, only few dispersion measures are consistent with additive shifts. In this work we propose to study the class ofdispersion measures that consider that "more is better than less" and we analyze and empirically compare their different char-acteristics. In particular, we discuss the property of consistency with respect to additive shifts and we examine a class of dispersion measures that satisfy this property. Finally, we examine the use of some of these dispersion measures in financial problems with particular attention to the portfolio selection problem.
