In recent years, thematic exchange-traded funds (ETF) have increased in economic significance. Investors in thematic ETFs have more than just financial objectives and gain a non-monetary added value from a thematic portion in their portfolios. Therefore, traditional portfolio optimization models which target only financial criteria cannot suit these investors’ needs anymore. Nevertheless, to account for their thematic interests, investors adapt a core satellite strategy in which conventional core portfolios and thematic satellite portfolios are combined. Thus, these portfolios are separately optimized without further considering inter-portfolio correlation effects. Since modern portfolio theory has originally been established to, inter alia, optimize these correlation effects, portfolios can only be efficient by chance. Therefore, this study targets the correlation effects between conventional and thematic portfolios and uses a tri-criterion thematic portfolio optimization model as an overall framework. Throughout a two-part analysis with tradable ETFs and a simulation with 250,000 draws and 1,750,000 portfolio optimizations performed, the status quo is compared to the tri-criterion model. Quantifying the suboptimality, simulation results show a mean portfolio improvement of 6.23% measured as relative yield enhancement. Further, our analysis concludes that the more narrowly a theme is defined and the more particular it is, relative yield enhancements can increase up to 46.88%.

专题组合优化:挑战核心卫星方法

近年来,主题交易所交易基金 (ETF) 的经济意义有所增加。主题 ETF 的投资者不仅有财务目标,还可以从其投资组合中的主题部分获得非货币附加值。因此,仅针对财务标准的传统投资组合优化模型已不能满足这些投资者的需求。然而,为了满足他们的主题利益,投资者采用了一种核心卫星战略,将传统的核心投资组合和主题卫星投资组合相结合。因此,这些投资组合被单独优化,而没有进一步考虑投资组合间的相关效应。由于现代投资组合理论最初是为了优化这些相关效应而建立的,因此投资组合只能偶然有效。所以,本研究针对常规投资组合和主题投资组合之间的相关效应,并使用三准则主题投资组合优化模型作为整体框架。在对可交易 ETF 的两部分分析以及执行 250,000 次抽奖和 1,750,000 次投资组合优化的模拟中,将现状与三标准模型进行了比较。量化次优性,模拟结果显示平均投资组合改善了 6.23%,作为相对收益率的提高。此外,我们的分析得出的结论是,一个主题定义得越窄且越具体,相对收益率的提升可高达 46.88%。在对可交易 ETF 的两部分分析以及执行 250,000 次抽奖和 1,750,000 次投资组合优化的模拟中,将现状与三标准模型进行了比较。量化次优性,模拟结果显示平均投资组合改善了 6.23%,作为相对收益率的提高。此外,我们的分析得出的结论是,一个主题定义得越窄且越具体,相对收益率的提高可以增加到 46.88%。在对可交易 ETF 的两部分分析以及执行 250,000 次抽奖和 1,750,000 次投资组合优化的模拟中,将现状与三标准模型进行了比较。量化次优性,模拟结果显示平均投资组合改善了 6.23%,作为相对收益率的提高。此外,我们的分析得出的结论是,一个主题定义得越窄且越具体,相对收益率的提升可高达 46.88%。
