To examine the changes, we propose a new dynamic market model between stock and crude oil futures prices, and a new dynamic allocation model of optimal portfolios, by considering the impact of financialization on crude oil markets. Our results show that before crude oil financialization, the optimal positions in S&P 500 varied with time, while those in WTI and Brent crude oil futures stayed almost at the same levels, implying diversification effects from crude oil futures for financial assets. However, after the financialization, the optimal positions of crude oil, particularly WTI futures, decreased chronologically. The parallel shifts of long S&P 500 and short crude oil futures positions may suggest the realization of cash and carry strategies using crude oil futures instead of S&P 500 futures. The role of crude oil futures in financial portfolios can change from diversification to cash and carry arbitrage due to financialization.","PeriodicalId":45142,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Alternative Investments","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-03-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47584970","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This approach, which gives more weight to more recent observations, allows for volatility and higher moment dynamics in portfolio construction. Using monthly hedge fund index returns from the Hedge Fund Research Database for January 1990 to December 2020, we find that the proposed approach significantly improves portfolio performance in terms of enhanced returns, reduced risk, and improved risk-adjusted returns compared to the benchmark equally weighted approach. However, the exponentially weighted method generally requires more frequent portfolio rebalancing to capture the return distribution dynamics, and the turnover varies across different portfolio optimization models. Therefore, investors should select an appropriate optimization strategy when implementing this approach for hedge fund portfolio construction. Moreover, we show that the results are robust to the choice of decay factor for the exponential weighting, target returns, and estimation window size, and across low-volatility, high-volatility, and most recent evaluation periods.","PeriodicalId":45142,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Alternative Investments","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44473642","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We show that rare whisky has specific characteristics in terms of the driving factors of its price that differ significantly from those of traditional financial assets, making rare whisky interesting as an investment. Furthermore, we analyze the risk-return characteristics of rare whisky in detail and compare them with those of stocks, bonds, hedge funds, private equity, commodities, real estate, and fine wines based on monthly data for the period from January 2013 to December 2020. The specific risk-return characteristics of rare whisky compared to the other asset classes under investigation suggest that rare whisky should be considered a separate asset class. Furthermore, it can be demonstrated that the addition of rare whisky to an international multi-asset portfolio leads to statistically significant performance improvements for various investment strategies.","PeriodicalId":45142,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Alternative Investments","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44324261","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While popular belief holds that a key characteristic of bitcoin is its excessive volatility, this article provides evidence that this is largely a misperception. We show that bitcoin return fluctuations are lower than those of roughly 900 stocks in the S&P1500 and 190 stocks in the S&P500. Moreover, we find that bitcoin is less volatile than commodities such as oil and silver, US Treasuries, AAA-rated corporate bonds, EU carbon credits, and some of the most popular technology and media stocks, including Apple, Twitter, and Netflix. Equally important, we find that during the March 2020 stock market crash triggered by COVID-19, the volatility of bitcoin was lower than that of most of these asset classes. The significant decline in bitcoin volatility over the past decade renders it more investable for conservative investors.","PeriodicalId":45142,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Alternative Investments","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48141070","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Reimbursement risk, the risk faced by health benefit providers in paying for expensive new drugs, can similarly cause shortfalls for health insurance firms and other benefit providers, particularly as the costs of specialty drugs increase. These risks can be acute when scientific breakthroughs increase new drug development rates. An emerging asset class, research-backed obligations (RBOs) (Fernandez et al. 2012; Hull et al. 2019), has the potential to provide a natural hedge for a broad class of such risks. This article demonstrates how to calculate simplified, first-order portfolio-specific hedge ratios. The author presents simulation results that demonstrate the benefits of such hedges for a hypothetical health insurance portfolio facing rapid increases in reimbursement risk due to the high cost of new specialty drugs.","PeriodicalId":45142,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Alternative Investments","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43739142","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Private market managers, across a wide range of strategies, are fundraising at a record pace. Hedge funds thought left behind in the face of a 12-year bull market in public equities are seeing a resurgence of interest from institutional investors. The term “alternatives,” while a general moniker for anything not “long-only,” represents a wide range of investment strategies with various risk parameters, supporting processes, and necessary infrastructure. While there are certainly some commonalities in assessing a listed security-focused hedge fund versus a private markets-focused manager (people, regulatory standing, alignment of interests), there are considerable differences in how these two types of “alternative” managers invest, report, hire, reconcile, and generally operate their businesses. Two of the most prominent industry associations supporting non-traditional asset classes, the Alternative Investment Management Association (AIMA) and the Institutional Limited Partners Association (ILPA), each publish a comprehensive due diligence questionnaire to assist Limited Partners (LPs) in their manager research efforts. This article examines how each questionnaire can be utilized in understanding both the investment and operational differences between hedge funds trading listed securities and managers focused solely on private transactions.","PeriodicalId":45142,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Alternative Investments","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41930300","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
