Abstract:

The dissertation analyses the topic and problems of selection and management of investment portfolio in terms of market dynamics. The global financial crisis has revealed that investments bear not only return possibilities but also a relatively high risk of loss. The main aim of the Thesis is to propose and test empirically investment portfolio selection and management solutions matching the tendencies of modern markets for the investors with different investing preferences.

Abstract:

Financial analyst commonly advice individual investors with a long investment horizon to invest in portfolios comprised more of equities. This advice is usually coupled with the practice of shifting the investor's portfolio from risky asset holdings towards bonds and cash as the investor's target date gets closer. This view rests on the notion that equities tend to be less risky over the long horizon and that stock returns exhibit mean reversion overtime. The purpose of this dissertation is to find the optimal asset allocation over various investment horizons; and investigate how

Abstract:

This study was conducted to establish whether risk management strategies could be developed to enable stock market investment portfolio managers to reduce the risk involved in stock market trading. The awareness of stock market risk elevates the requirement for risk management strategies as discussed in Chapter 1. The research scope is identified, and an overview of the study gives further guidance as to what lies ahead. The theory behind macroeconomic forces and how they influence share prices is discussed in Chapter 2. It is established that market sectors and companies within those sectors

Abstract:

This dissertation highlights the importance of considering higher moments and partial moments of the distribution when conducting portfolio optimisation and selection. This is due partly to the weaknesses of mean-variance optimisation, as discussed throughout the dissertation, and the appropriateness of considering higher moments to better meet the investors utility functions. This dissertation investigates the usage of two bi-objective optimisation frameworks, a Skewness/Semivariance framework previously suggested by Brito et al (2016), and a proposed upside and downside semivariance framewor

This study investigates a new asset allocation technique termed Factor Adjusted Rolling Economic Drawdown (FAREDD), whereby resources are allocated to different assets by way of integrating Principle Component Analysis (PCA) with existing Rolling Economic Drawdown Methods (REDD). The primary purpose of this model is to create a portfolio with low drawdown levels, that can withstand turbulent market periods thus protecting portfolio value through providing stronger diversification benefits while still seeking to maximise risk adjusted and overall return.

This thesis examines the degree to which alternative funds deviate from their style-benchmark and how this is related to past performance and fund size, and how it impacts future risk and returns. Additionally the thesis examines how security selection and market timing skills differ across varying degrees of deviation from the benchmark. The thesis uses data for hedge funds, funds of funds, and CTA funds from the Center for International Securities and Derivatives Markets and employs fund???s tracking error relative to their style-benchmark to estimate the level of drift. The style-benchmarks

Abstract:

Asset Liability Management is a current topic where accountability of asset management is of high importance. This is a result of continuously increasing investments in the stock market globally. The globalisation exposes a big part of the different markets to the same types of risk. This makes it harder to secure capital and assets through diversified investments. Further it has led to a more complex and resource demanding investment basis. The uncertainty of the future brings the focus of fund management to optimising and minimising risks, rather than trying to predict individual movements o

Abstract:

This thesis presents three essays on the Chinese equity market. Specifically I focus on the long run common trends and microstructure of the market after a set of regulatory events that surrounded a trading reform in 2001.

In Chapter 2, I present a model of common trends amongst the Chinese equity market segments and implement a robust test for cointegrating relations. In Chapter 3, I derive a m

Abstract:

The performance of cash protection strategies implemented in the South African market are investigated in order to establish if investors are able to add value through the use of dynamic portfolio insurance methods. The analysis is performed, using monthly data, from January 1961 to August 2014 using six alternative methodologies including both a Fixed Rate and Rolling Average Stop-Loss approach, a Lock-In approach, a Constant Mix strategy, a Constant Proportion Portfolio Insurance ("CPPI") approach and an alternative CPPI approach using a Ratchet mechanism. The results indicate that the use o

Abstract:

The purpose of the present research paper was three fold. First, determine if there is a trade interdependence between the United States and Nordic countries (Denmark, Finland, Sweden, and Baltic States). Second, determine if there is correlation between the respective equity markets. Third, determine if the changes in the trade relations lead to the changes in stock market correlations. The hypothesis of the project was that weaker trade relations between two countries would lead to lower correlation between their stock markets, providing beneficial opportunities for portfolio diversification
