A limit order book provides information on available limit order prices and their volumes. Based on these quantities, we give an empirical result on the relationship between the bid-ask liquidity balance and trade sign and we show that liquidity balance on best bid/best ask is quite informative...

We introduce a multivariate Hawkes process with constraints on its conditional density. It is a multivariate point process with conditional intensity similar to that of a multivariate Hawkes process but certain events are forbidden with respect to boundary conditions on a multidimensional...

In this paper, we propose a new way to predict market returns for multi-assets (equity, fixed-income and commodity) by extracting features from macroeconomic data and performing machine learning algorithms for both regression and classification. Our approach aims to select robust models to build...

The concept of alternative risk premia is an extension of the factor investing approach. Factor investing consists in building long-only equity portfolios, which are directly exposed to common risk factors like size, value or momentum. Alternative risk premia designate non-traditional risk...

In this article, we consider a new framework to understand risk-based portfolios (GMV, EW, ERC and MDP). This framework is similar to the constrained minimum variance model of Jurczenko et al. (2013), but with another definition of the diversification constraint. The corresponding optimization...

This article develops a model that takes into account skewness risk in risk parity portfolios. In this framework, asset returns are viewed as stochastic processes with jumps or random variables generated by a Gaussian mixture distribution. This dual representation allows us to show that skewness...
