الملخص الإنجليزي

This paper will use a return constrained mean-variance Markowitz model to minimize the variance of two portfolios under a constrained portfolio expected return.

The first portfolio will be optimized in a traditional way, and the second portfolio will be optimized under Shariah compliant trading.

This optimization will evaluate the two portfolios related to the assets’ holding period and short selling in the Moroccan Stock Market.

Historical daily stock rates of returns for the companies included in the Madex Index will be used for the analysis.

This study will use mainly the minimum variance optimization, and many theoretical literatures highlighted the importance of Markowitz contribution to minimizing risks of portfolios for investors under the diversification advantage.

Besides, this research will provide risk averse investors an idea on how portfolio optimization under Shariah compliant trading is performing compared to the portfolio without these regulations.

The main results show that the traditional portfolio has highly volatile rate of return compared to the Shariah compliant portfolio which offers a very stable rate of return that almost tracks the Madex Index.

Indeed, this will be a useful tool for the analysis of a portfolio since the Shariah compliant trading is soon an emerging banking system in Morocco.
