Financial advisory system
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- determining feasible exposures, by a financial product mapping module being executed by one or more processors of one or more computer systems, to a plurality of asset classes achievable by a particular investor by determining a combination of one or more asset classes and proportions thereof that characterize future performance of each financial product of a limited set of financial products available to the particular investor for investment, wherein the limited set of financial products available to the particular investor is a proper subset of a set of all financial products available for investment via public markets; and
identifying, by a portfolio optimization module being executed by the one or more processors, a recommended efficient portfolio of financial products from the limited set of financial products by maximizing an expected utility of wealth for the particular investor based upon the feasible exposures.

Abstract
A financial advisory system is provided. According to one aspect of the present invention, return scenarios for optimized portfolio allocations are simulated interactively to facilitate financial product selection. Return scenarios for each asset class of a plurality of asset classes are generated based upon estimated future scenarios of one or more economic factors. A mapping from each financial product of an available set of financial products onto one or more asset classes of the plurality of asset classes is created by determining exposures of the available set of financial products to each asset class of the plurality of asset classes. In this way, the expected returns and correlations of a plurality of financial products are generated and used to produce optimized portfolios of financial products. Return scenarios are simulated for one or more portfolios including combinations of financial products from the available set of financial products based upon the mapping.

A computer-readable storage medium readable by one or more computer systems and tangibly embodying a set of instructions executable by one or more processors of the one or more computer systems to perform method steps for identifying a recommended efficient portfolio of financial products, the method steps comprising:
-
determining feasible exposures to a plurality of asset classes achievable by a particular investor by determining a combination of one or more asset classes and proportions thereof that characterize future performance of each financial product of a limited set of financial products available to the particular investor for investment, wherein the limited set of financial products available to the particular investor is a proper subset of a set of all financial products available for investment via public markets; and identifying a recommended efficient portfolio of financial products from the limited set of financial products by maximizing an expected utility of wealth for the particular investor based upon the feasible exposures. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 28, 29)

15. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
a step, performed by a financial product mapping module being executed by one or more processors of one or more computer systems, for determining feasible exposures to a plurality of asset classes achievable by a particular investor based upon a limited set of financial products available to the particular investor for investment, wherein the limited set of financial products available to the particular investor is a proper subset of a set of all financial products available for investment via public markets; and a step, performed by a portfolio optimization module being executed by the one or more processors, for identifying a recommended efficient portfolio of financial products from the limited set of financial products. - View Dependent Claims (16, 30, 31)

17. A computer system comprising
a storage device having stored therein one or more routines operable to determine feasible exposures to a plurality of asset classes achievable by a particular investor and identify a recommended efficient portfolio of financial products from a limited set of financial products available to the particular investor for investment; - and
one or more processors coupled to the storage device and operable to execute the one or more routines, where the limited set of financial products available to the particular investor is a proper subset of a set of all financial products available for investment via public markets; the feasible exposures are determined by determining a combination of one or more asset classes and proportions thereof that characterize future performance of each financial product of the limited set of financial products; and the recommended efficient portfolio is identified by maximizing an expected utility of wealth for the particular investor based upon the feasible exposures. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 32)
