riskparityportfolio provides tools to design risk parity portfolios. In its simplest form, we consider the convex formulation with a unique solution proposed by Spinu (2013) and use cyclical methods inspired by Griveau-Billion et al. (2013) and Choi & Chen (2022). For more general formulations, which are usually nonconvex, we implement the successive convex approximation method proposed by Feng & Palomar (2015).
