Abstract


The bat algorithm is a meta-heuristic algorithm inspired by the bats behaviour characterized by using the echolocation process to localize their objective. In this work applied the bat algorithm has been used in order to solve the portfolio selection problem. This method has been adapted to the cardinality constrained efficient frontier model CCEF using four indexes Hang Seng in Hong Kong, DAX 100 in Germany FTSE 100 in USA and NIKKEI in Japan and the obtained results were compared to those of the unconstrained efficient frontier model (UEF). The bat method illustrates an optimal approximation between the constrained and the unconstrained models.
