问题如下:

If two securities have the same volatility and a correlation equal to -0.5 their minimum variance hedge ratio is

选项:

A.

  1:1

B.

  2:1

C.

  4:1

D.

  16:1

解释:

ANSWER: B

Set x as the amount to invest in the second security, relative to that in the first (or the hedge ratio). The variance is then proportional to 1+x2+2xρ1+x^2+2x\rho. Taking the derivative and setting to zero, we have x=ρ=0.5x=-\rho=0.5. Thus, one security must have twice the amount in the other. Alternatively, the hedge ratio is given by N=ρσSσFN\ast=-\rho\frac{\sigma_S}{\sigma_F} which gives 0.5. Answer B is the only one that is consistent with this number or its inverse.

老师,看了解析这题也没懂,可以解释一下吗?这题的hedge ratio=0.5吗?

同学你好!

设第二只股票相对于第1只股票的头寸为x,然后列出整个组合方差的表达式(如解析所示),这是一个关于x的二次函数,开口向上,根据数学知识,对称轴是-ρ。也就是说,当x=-ρ=0.5时,方差取最小值。
