报告摘要:In this talk, we review the new risk measures recentlydeveloped for controlling downside risks and from behavioural economics theory.We present the applications  of the new risk measures in optimalinvestment portfolio selections for safety-first investors. We use the realdata from the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) to show that the new riskmeasures can effectively control downside risks of investment portfolios  and perform  better than the classical risk measures suchas TVaR in a volatile market.
