We introduce a measure of diversification for portfolios comprising d risky assets. This measure relates the smallest … of diversification is provided, and the shortcomings of some of these approaches are illustrated. A categorization of … history spanning the last five decades. When measuring the diversification of naively allocated 40-asset portfolios, the …

We implement momentum strategies using reward-risk measures as ranking criteria based on classical tempered stable distribution. Performances and risk characteristics for the alternative portfolios are obtained in various asset classes and markets. The reward-risk momentum strategies with lower...

This paper incorporates Bayesian estimation and optimization into portfolio selection framework, particularly for high-dimensional portfolio in which the number of assets is larger than the number of observations. We leverage a constrained 𝓁1 minimization approach, called linear programming...

This paper proposes a self-calibrated sparse learning approach for estimating a sparse target vector, which is a product of a precision matrix and a vector, and investigates its application to finance to provide an innovative construction of relative-volatility-managed portfolio (RVMP). The...

The estimation of multivariate GARCH models remains a challenging task, even in modern computer environments. This manuscript shows how Independent Component Analysis can be used to estimate the Generalized Orthogonal GARCH model in a fraction of the time otherwise required. The proposed method...

This paper studies the mean-variance (MV) portfolio problems under static and dynamic settings, particularly for the case that the number of assets ($p$) is larger than the number of observations ($n$). We prove that the classical plug-in estimation seriously distorts the optimal MV portfolio in...

Markowitz (1952) portfolio selection requires an estimator of the covariance matrix of returns. To address this problem, we promote a nonlinear shrinkage estimator that is more flexible than previous linear shrinkage estimators and has just the right number of free parameters (that is, the...

Multivariate GARCH models do not perform well in large dimensions due to the so-called curse of dimensionality. The recent DCC-NL model of Engle et al. (2019) is able to overcome this curse via nonlinear shrinkage estimation of the unconditional correlation matrix. In this paper, we show how...
