Investment Portfolio Optimization In Infrastructure Stocks Using The Mean-VaR Risk Tolerance Model

Abstract

Infrastructure a crucial role in economic development and the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with investment being a key activity supporting this. Investment involves the allocation of assets with the expectation of gaining profit with minimal risk, making the selection of optimal investment portfolios crucial for investors. Therefore, the aim of this research is to identify the optimal portfolio in infrastructure stocks using the Mean-VaR model. Through portfolio analysis, this study addresses two main issues: determining the optimal allocation for each infrastructure stock and formulating an optimal stock investment portfolio while minimizing risk and maximizing return. The methodology employed in this research is the Mean-VaR approach, which combines the advantages of Value at Risk (VaR) in risk measurement with consideration of return expectations. The findings indicate that eight infrastructure stocks meet the criteria for forming an optimal portfolio. The proportion of each stock in the optimal portfolio is as follows: ISAT (2.74%), TLKM (33.894%), JSMR (3.343%), BALI (0.102%), IPCC (5.044%), KEEN (14.792%), PTPW (25.863%), and AKRA (14.219%). The results of this study can serve as a foundation for better investment decision-making.
