| description | This study restates the issue of international portfolio diversification benefits by
considering the problem of perfect foresight assumption and constant variancecovariance estimation. Whilst emphasising the role of the asymmetry volatility model in
portfolio formation, we also investigate the economic implication of the smooth transition
exponential smoothing (STES) method in portfolio risk management. Our results suggest
that all portfolios perform better in the ex-post period compared to the ex-ante period.
However, investors may not be able to obtain any benefits from diversifying their
portfolio in developed stock markets in both ex-ante and ex-post periods. Further
investigation on the economic implications of the STES method also show that the STES
method does help to cushion losses generated from the international diversification
portfolio. Hence, this suggests the use of the STES method in computing and monitoring
the risk of an internationally diversified portfolio. |
