Abstract：In this talk, we review the new risk measures recently developed for controlling downside risks and from behavioural economics theory. We present the applications  of the new risk measures in optimal investment portfolio selections for safety-first investors. We use the real data from the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) to show that the new risk measures  can effectively control downside risks of investment  portfolios  and perform  better than the classical risk measures such as TVaR in a volatile market. This talk is based on joint works with Tiantian Mao and Maochao Xu.
