Hedge Ratio (OHR) across different hedging time horizons. We examine whether hedge ratios calculated over a short term … hedging horizon can be scaled and successfully applied to longer term horizons. We also test the equivalence of scaled hedge … ratios with those calculated directly from lower frequency data and compare them in terms of hedging effectiveness. Our …

We discover a new currency strategy with highly desirable return and diversification properties, which uses the predictive capability of currency volatility risk premia for currency returns. The volatility risk premium -- the difference between expected realized volatility and model-free implied...
