Abstract

In this article we consider the portfolio selection problem of an agent with robust preferences in the sense of Gilboa and Schmeidler [Itzhak Gilboa, David Schmeidler, Maxmin expected utility with non-unique prior, Journal of Mathematical Economics 18 (1989) 141–153] in an incomplete market. Downside risk is constrained by a robust version of utility-based shortfall risk. We derive an explicit representation of the optimal terminal wealth in terms of certain worst case measures which can be characterized as minimizers of a dual problem. This dual problem involves a three-dimensional analogue of ff-divergences which generalize the notion of relative entropy.
