Popis: We consider the problem of optimal portfolio selection for a multidimensional geometric Brownian motion model. We look for portfolios that maximize the probability of outperforming a stochastic benchmark. More specifically, we seek to maximize the decay rate of the shortfall probability and (or) to minimize the decay rate of the outperformance probability in the long run. A simple heuristic enables us to find an asymptotically optimal investment policy. The results provide interesting insights.
