A fuzzy approach to portfolio selection at bursa Malaysia / Wan Rosanisah Wan Mohd

Selecting the right portfolio is one of the problems to fund managers, investors, individual or institutional investors. Some authors introduced portfolio models to solve the portfolio problem such as Markowitz, Fishburn, Konno and Yamazaki, Jorion and Young. The model introduced by the authors did...
