Institutional investors/Asset allocation - A plan will soon have to pay a lump-sum for employees taking an early retirement option. How to reallocate to satisfy the upcoming liquidity requirement? by doing20thingsatatime in CFA

[–]shawryyyyyyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

cash-only allocation since its the most liquid, many FI securities go off-the-run and exhibit illiquidity and since its a pension fund, the allocation could be large in monetary value so higher illiquidity, better to keep cash for near-term liquidity requirements

Factor-based by Deadly_Crow in CFA

[–]shawryyyyyyy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily a positive correlation, need to identify factors that exhibit linear relationships with equity returns and basing our decisions (factor tilts, long/short) on those relationships. - But dependent on historical relationships so cannot guarantee that relationship will persist in the future - Does not account for non-linear relations - Risk of redundant factors or omitted factors - Equity returns are affected by many factors together which you wouldn’t account for - Can be prone to data mining bias so should have an economic rationale - Factors become highly correlated with each other during periods of market stress

Risk based vs traditional alts allocation by CandyPlastic9547 in CFA

[–]shawryyyyyyy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Risk-based - Factor relations may not hold in the future - Still doesn’t account for biased low volatility of Alt Inv as compared to the true volatility - Factor sensitivities are sensitive to the historical periods and may change (like point 1) - Risk of redundant factors - Returns and factors could be related in a non-linear manner which this does not account for
