Then I will present a chance-constrained portfolio problem with random returns. Under normality, the problem can be efficiently solved, but in more general situations we have to rely on approximations. We apply different approximation schemes to the portfolio problem and we present the computational results. The talk will be aimed at a broad audience and no previous knowledge of chance-constrained programming is required.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n_______________________________\n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBernardo K.
