Ranking of Financial Strategies Based on Linear Goal Programming and VIKOR

Majid Moradi, Hossein Janatifar

Abstract


Strategy selection is usually a difficult task. Managers encounter this difficulty because they lack perfect foresight. They must choose a strategy today, whose success depends on future conditions, without knowing exactly what the future looks like.  This aim of this study is applying the linear goal programming and VIKOR methods to prioritize financial strategies. LGP method is used in determining the weights of the criteria and then ranking of financial Strategies are determined by VIKOR method. We apply the integrated method in real case to demonstrate the application of proposed method.
