Although this problem has much significance in finance, it is difficult to solve because of the nonconvexity of the objective function. Based on fuzzy theory and flexible optimization, the fuzzy portfolio problem is transformed to the crisp form which is proved to be a semistrictly quasiconvex programming problem for any decreasing membership functions. This property of the equivalent problem is the basis to solve the main problem efficiently by available convex programming algorithms. The computational experiments with SP500 data set is reported to demonstrate the performance of the proposed model. Keyphrases: Flexible optimization, Fuzzy portfolio selection, Semistrictly quasiconvex programming, Sharpe ratio, soft constraints
