Transport Infrastructure Equities in a Mixed Asset Portfolio: Estimating Risk with a Garch-Copula CV...

March 2018 · Journal of Property Research

Transport infrastructure is an important subsector within infrastructure, but knowledge of its equities in terms of risk-return characteristics and contribution to portfolio performance is still limited. This study assesses the subsector individually and in a multi-asset, index-based portfolio. In doing so, we apply a t-Copula-based Conditional Value-at-Risk model to simulate risk and returns. ... [Show full abstract] Our findings reveal that the subsector has a relatively low dependency on other equities, performs like other alternative asset classes such as general real estate, and does not grant significant risk diversification benefits for mainstream institutional investors such as pension funds. Investors aiming for higher target returns may however assign substantial weights to transport infrastructure, supporting our conjecture that it does not share the same asset class characteristics as general infrastructure. By contrasting Value-at-Risk (VaR) and Conditional Value-at-Risk (CVaR) scores for both the mean-variance framework and the t-Copula simulation, we further document the limitations of traditional VaR approaches. Hence, this study’s results support the use of risk assessment tools that incorporate non-normal distributions to represent multivariate dependence structures.

Forced Liquidations, Fire Sales, and the Cost of Illiquidity

January 2016 · The Journal of Portfolio Management

Seeking diversification, institutional investors are often drawn to investment opportunities that are relatively illiquid, taking for granted that they will receive a liquidity premium that compensates them for the lack of liquidity. Forced liquidations typically occur when illiquid portfolios become overvalued relative to their true market value and the reported valuation is no longer credible. ... [Show full abstract] When a forced liquidation occurs, the significant associated costs are obvious and easy to take into account. But there is a rarely recognized cost that investors should apply to illiquid investments' expected return before such an event. This article presents a simple optionadjusted return for evaluating the cost of such illiquidity.
