Book excerpt: Using a large international equity market database that has not been previously used for such a purpose, this paper documents that value (i.e., high book-to-market ) stocks outperform growth (i.e., low book-to-market ) stocks, on average, in most countries during the January 1975 - December 1995 period, both absolutely and after adjusting for risk. The international evidence confirms the findings of previous work reported for the U.S.. For 1975-1995, the annual difference between the average returns on portfolios of high and low book-to-market stocks is 12.94% in North America, 10.42% in Europe, 17.26% in Pacific-Rim per year, and value stocks outperform growth stocks in 17 out of 18 national capital markets. Our analysis also shows that a three-factor model explains most of the cross-sectional variation in average returns on industry portfolios across countries and that the superior performance of the value investing strategy, documented in this study, is a manifestation of size and book-to-market effects. These results are consistent with those reported by Fama and French (1994, 1996) that show that the value-growth pattern in stock returns is largely explained by a three-factor asset pricing model. Our results suggest that the Fama and French (1996) three-factor asset pricing model is not limited to the U.S. stock market.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the effectiveness of six risk factors when applied to a selection of twenty industry-specific portfolios in explaining those portfolios' returns. The explanatory power of each risk factor, as well as its statistical significance, is judged with respect to the explanatory power provided by the Fama-French Three Factor Model. The three additional factors are the Momentum, and Short and Long-Term price reversal factors. Results indicate that, of the three additional factors, Momentum has the most explanatory power on average. Nevertheless, several exceptions were identified in which the inclusion of the Momentum factor destroys explanatory power, or in which the Short or Long-Term reversal factor yielded significant explanatory power. Results demonstrate the differences of these factors' behavior among the industries tested.

Book excerpt: This book demonstrates how quantitative country-level investment strategies can be successfully employed to manage money in international markets. It offers a range of state-of-the-art quantitative strategies, describing their theoretical bases, implementation details, and performance in over 70 countries between 1995 and 2015. International diversification has long been a key to stable investing. However, the increased integration and openness of global financial markets has led to rising correlations between stock market returns in particular countries, driving down the benefits of diversification and increasing the importance of country selection strategies as part of an investment process. Zaremba and Shemer explain the efficiency of quantitative investing, which captures huge amounts of data of limited scope very quickly. In the traditional approach, this data compilation is an immense undertaking, limited in scope and vulnerable to behavioral errors, but this can be overcome with the help of a new paradigm of quantitative investment at the country level. Quantitative country asset allocation can be efficiently accomplished by using wealth insights that have been generated in the academic literature, discovering many anomalies and regular patterns in asset prices. Armed with this information, investors and managers can process large amounts of data more efficiently when deciding to invest in ETFs, index funds, or futures markets.

Book excerpt: Emerging markets are associated with developing economies and are structurally different from the developed markets. They offer higher expected returns as they are experiencing higher growth rates and potential for diversifying the risk in global portfolios as they are partially integrated with the developed markets. However, the structural differences coupled with partial integration limit the capability of the asset pricing models, originally designed for the developed markets, to capture risk and return dynamics of the assets in these markets and necessitate customization of the models to the local settings. Many asset pricing studies undertaken in this direction supplement the factors in developed market models with the factors that are unique to the emerging markets. However, the models have limited scope in explaining asset returns due to limited explanatory power of the factors included. This study proposes a multifactor asset pricing model with nine explanatory factors, which include returns on the local and global market portfolios, exchange rate, and returns on six mimicking portfolios that proxy for the common sources of risks associated with size, book to market value of equity, market liquidity, leverage, quality of earnings, and asset liquidity of firms. The last three factors in the model have not been tested in the emerging markets; among these, asset liquidity is introduced as an explanatory factor in asset pricing in this study. The model is tested in seven emerging markets, namely China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, South Africa, and Brazil using ten-year monthly data on non-financial firms over period of January 2004 to December 2013. Generalized method of moments (GMM) is applied for data analysis and model testing. The findings of the study reveal that the local market portfolio is the most dominant factor in all the markets. It subsumes the effects of the global market portfolio and the exchange rate in most of the markets. In addition, consistent cross-country behaviour of size related factor is observed in explaining returns on small and medium portfolios, and of book to market value of equity related factor in explaining returns on high book to market value portfolios. Other factors in the model exhibit different behaviours in different markets indicating presence of idiosyncrasies in the common sources of risks that drive returns in these markets. The newly introduced asset liquidity factor has strong impact on stock returns in four markets: India, Indonesia, Malaysia and South Africa. Furthermore, the new to emerging markets factors leverage and quality of earnings have noticeable influence on stock returns in two markets each; leverage in India and Malaysia, and quality of earnings in China and Brazil. The observed behaviour of the model in the markets studied mirrors the behaviour expected of asset pricing models in emerging markets, which are partially integrated with one another and are in different stages of economic lifecycle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes a new capital asset pricing model dubbed the ZCAPM that outperforms other popular models in empirical tests using US stock returns. The ZCAPM is derived from Fischer Black’s well-known zero-beta CAPM, itself a more general form of the famous capital asset pricing model (CAPM) by 1990 Nobel Laureate William Sharpe and others. It is widely accepted that the CAPM has failed in its theoretical relation between market beta risk and average stock returns, as numerous studies have shown that it does not work in the real world with empirical stock return data. The upshot of the CAPM’s failure is that many new factors have been proposed by researchers. However, the number of factors proposed by authors has steadily increased into the hundreds over the past three decades. This new ZCAPM is a path-breaking asset pricing model that is shown to outperform popular models currently in practice in finance across different test assets and time periods. Since asset pricing is central to the field of finance, it can be broadly employed across many areas, including investment analysis, cost of equity analyses, valuation, corporate decision making, pension portfolio management, etc. The ZCAPM represents a revolution in finance that proves the CAPM as conceived by Sharpe and others is alive and well in a new form, and will certainly be of interest to academics, researchers, students, and professionals of finance, investing, and economics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asset pricing, investment, and trading strategies are very important in finance. They are useful in various situations, for example, supporting the decision-making process of choosing investments; determining the asset-specific required rate of return on the investment; pricing derivatives for trading or hedging; getting portfolios from fixed incomes or bonds, stocks, and other assets; evaluating diverse portfolios; determining macroeconomic variables affecting market prices; calculating option prices; and incorporating features such as mean reversion and volatility, etc. They can also be applied in financial forecast for assets, portfolios, business projects. Understanding, modeling, and using various asset pricing models, investment models, and models for different trading strategies is paramount in many different areas of finance and investment, including banking, stocks, bonds, currencies, and related financial derivatives. Different asset pricing models, investment models, and models for different trading strategies also allow us to compare the performances of different variables through the analysis of empirical real-world data. This Special Issue on "Asset Pricing, Investment, and Trading Strategies" will be devoted to advancements in the theoretical development of various asset pricing models, investment models, and models for different trading strategies as well as to their applications. The Special Issue will encompass innovative theoretical developments, challenging and exciting practical applications, and interesting case studies in the development and analysis of various asset pricing models, investment models, and models for different trading strategies in finance and cognate disciplines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2004 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1,3, European Business School - International University Schloß Reichartshausen Oestrich-Winkel, language: English, abstract: The decision as to which Assets should be included in a portfolio is first addressed in a Strategic Asset Allocation policy. The determination of the Strategic Asset Allocation is one of the most important factors that influences a portfolio’s performance. The process of defining a policy within the Strategic Asset Allocation should be done by both the portfolio manager and the potential investor. Together with the International Capital Asset Pricing Model the Strategic Asset Allocation tries to find an optimal portfolio which maximizes return and, at the same time, tries to minimize the possible risk. Due to currency and inflation risk, hedging should be considered as crucial point during the Strategic Asset Allocation. 1 2 Strategic Asset Allocation under consideration of the International Capital Asset Pricing Model decides to which asset classes a portfolio should be divided. Factors which determine the decision are expected returns, variances and covariances as well as the degree of risk aversion. The analysis of mean-variance which was mostly developed by Harry Markowitz gave portfolio advice until the early eighties concerning the optimal asset allocation. The aims of this approach were to minimize risk while receiving the highest possible return. Over the years the method was critized several times because of a lack of decisive factors. Markowitz only assumed a one period model and permanent income, currency and inflation risk were also ignored.3 Strategic Asset Allocation is much more than investing short- term. Investors care about inflation and currency risk. Hedging is particularly needed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Portfolio management is an ongoing process of constructing portfolios that balances an investor's objectives with the portfolio manager's expectations about the future. This dynamic process provides the payoff for investors. Portfolio management evaluates individual assets or investments by their contribution to the risk and return of an investor's portfolio rather than in isolation. This is called the portfolio perspective. Thus, by constructing a diversified portfolio, a portfolio manager can reduce risk for a given level of expected return, compared to investing in an individual asset or security. According to modern portfolio theory (MPT), investors who do not follow a portfolio perspective bear risk that is not rewarded with greater expected return. Portfolio diversification works best when financial markets are operating normally compared to periods of market turmoil such as the 2007-2008 financial crisis. During periods of turmoil, correlations tend to increase thus reducing the benefits of diversification. Portfolio management today emerges as a dynamic process, which continues to evolve at a rapid pace. The purpose of Portfolio Theory and Management is to take readers from the foundations of portfolio management with the contributions of financial pioneers up to the latest trends emerging within the context of special topics. The book includes discussions of portfolio theory and management both before and after the 2007-2008 financial crisis. This volume provides a critical reflection of what worked and what did not work viewed from the perspective of the recent financial crisis. Further, the book is not restricted to the U.S. market but takes a more global focus by highlighting cross-country differences and practices. This 30-chapter book consists of seven sections. These chapters are: (1) portfolio theory and asset pricing, (2) the investment policy statement and fiduciary duties, (3) asset allocation and portfolio construction, (4) risk management, (V) portfolio execution, monitoring, and rebalancing, (6) evaluating and reporting portfolio performance, and (7) special topics.
