Semi-Parametric Estimation and Simulation of Actively Managed Portfolios
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we propose a copula-based technique to recover the distribution of actively managed funds. The copula is meant to represent the dependence structure between the market return (or in general the benchmark) and the investment strategy of the asset manager. The analysis is carried out in a rational investor economy with managed funds, such as that in Merton (1981) and Berk and Green (2004). The distribution of returns on any managed fund turns out to be represented by: i) a marginal distribution representing the asset management activity; ii) a copula function describing market timing activity.

The Negative Binomial Distribution Efficiency in Finite Mixture of Semi-parametric Generalized Linear Models
Introduction Selection the appropriate statistical model for the response variable is one of the most important problem in the finite mixture of generalized linear models. One of the distributions which it has a problem in a finite mixture of semi-parametric generalized statistical models, is the Poisson distribution. In this paper, to overcome over dispersion and computational burden, finite ...
متن کاملThe economic value of controlling for large losses in portfolio selection
During financial crises equity portfolios have suffered large losses. Methodologies for portfolio selection taking into account the possibility of large losses have existed for decades but their economic value is not well established. This article investigates the economic value in reducing the probability of large losses in portfolio selection. We combine mean-variance analysis with semi-param...
متن کاملSemi-parametric Quantile Regression for Analysing Continuous Longitudinal Responses
Recently, quantile regression (QR) models are often applied for longitudinal data analysis. When the distribution of responses seems to be skew and asymmetric due to outliers and heavy-tails, QR models may work suitably. In this paper, a semi-parametric quantile regression model is developed for analysing continuous longitudinal responses. The error term's distribution is assumed to be Asymmetr...
