I recently wrote a paper titled "An Introduction to Asset Pricing and Hedge Fund Strategies: Building the Perfect Portfolio for Dummies." This paper is designed to provide an accessible yet comprehensive overview of essential concepts in asset pricing and hedge fund strategies.
In this paper, I cover:
Modern Portfolio Theory (MPT): Maximizing returns per unit of risk, the significance of the Sharpe ratio, and diversification benefits.
Risk Parity: Balancing risk between different asset classes and within asset classes, pioneered by Ray Dalio.
Key Academic Contributions: From the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) to the Fama-French multi-factor models, and insights on market anomalies.
Hedge Fund Strategies: Practical strategies like merger arbitrage, convertible bond arbitrage, and statistical arbitrage, blending academic insights with industry practices.
Innovative Approaches: Leveraging advanced techniques such as machine learning for asset pricing and exploring sophisticated trading signals.
My goal was to create a resource that bridges the gap between theoretical finance concepts and practical investment strategies. Whether you're a finance student, an aspiring investor, or just someone curious about the intricacies of portfolio management, I hope you'll find this paper useful.
You can read the full paper here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1owdKhL5t23intkShWjzNO6SA5d7Zzqoi/view?usp=sharing
Anyways, I would love your thoughts, and was wondering if anyone was interested in starting a fund based on this multistrategy approach.
Best,
Aidan Vyas
