MTO
Mean-tracking-error optimization, maximize your return in excess of a benchmark while minimizing tracking-error.
Description
Maximize expected returns relative to a benchmark and minimize expected tracking-error. Solve for the mean-tracking-error optimal portfolio (MTO). This is a quadratic programming optimizer in active space. The function allow you to specify both linear and non-linear constraints and is able to account for friction penalties such as transaction costs across assets.
Syntax
The following describes the function signature for use in Microsoft Excel's formula bar.
Input(s)
Output(s)
The function returns a vector of optimal weights across assets and appends the corresponding optimization's exit flag.
The output matrix follows the vector orientation of mu (column / row). If you have specified your inputs as column-vectors, the corresponding output matrix will be transpose of the above.
