We analyze the economic benefits of several covariance estimation approaches on a tactical asset-allocation problem in the presence of high-frequency return data. Our analysis confirms that the use of robust-to-noise and asynchronicity estimators not only gives statistically more accurate results, but the statistical efficiency is reflected into a financial benefit in most cases.

Abstract
We analyze the economic benefits of several covariance estimation approaches on a tactical asset-allocation problem in the presence of high-frequency return data. Our analysis confirms that the use of robust-to-noise and asynchronicity estimators not only gives statistically more accurate results, but the statistical efficiency is reflected into a financial benefit in most cases.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
