问题如下:
TMT has $250 million in assets under management. ABC.CO has a market capitalization of $3.0 billion, an index weight of 0.20%, and an average daily trading volume (ADV) of 1% of its market capitalization. TMT considers investing in ABC and has the following position size policy constraints:
Allocation: No investment in any security may represent more than 3% of total AUM.
Liquidity: No position size may represent more than 10% of the dollar value of the security’s ADV.
Index weight: The maximum position weight must be less than or equal to 10 times the security’s weight in the index.
Which of the following position size policy constraints is the most restrictive in setting TMT’s maximum position size in shares of ABC?
选项:
A. Liquidity
B. Allocation
C. Index weight
解释:
A is correct.
考点:Implicit Cost-related Considerations
解析: 根据三种限制要求,最大持仓规模分别计算如下:
ABC公司每日交易价值=ABC的市值×每日的交易量=$3 billion × 1.0% = $30 million
流动性限制= ABC公司每日交易价值×流动性限制=$30 million × 10% = $3 million
配置限制=管理的资产规模×最大头寸限制=$250 million × 3.0% = $7.5 million
指数权重限制=管理的资产规模×(指数权重×10)=$250 million × (0.20% × 10) = $5.0 million
由于流动性限制计算出来的最大持仓规模金额最小,因此它是最严格限制政策。
liquidity的限制是当日trading不超过3M、其他两个限制是持仓上限,这三个数据都不是一个维度,怎么能比较谁最严格呢?
