We give a simple explicit formula for turnover reduction when a large number of alphas are
traded on the same execution platform and trades are crossed internally. We model turnover …

We discuss investment allocation to multiple alpha streams traded on the same execution
platform with internal crossing of trades and point out differences with allocating investment …

Factor models for alpha streams

Z Kakushadze - arXiv preprint arXiv:1406.3396, 2014 - arxiv.org
We propose a framework for constructing factor models for alpha streams. Our motivation is
threefold. 1) When the number of alphas is large, the sample covariance matrix is singular …

[HTML][HTML] Can turnover go to zero?

Z Kakushadze - Journal of Derivatives & Hedge Funds, 2014 - Springer
Internal crossing of trades between multiple alpha streams results in portfolio turnover
reduction. Turnover reduction can be modeled using the correlation structure of the alpha …

[HTML][HTML] Combining alphas via bounded regression

Z Kakushadze - Risks, 2015 - mdpi.com
We give an explicit algorithm and source code for combining alpha streams via bounded
regression. In practical applications, typically, there is insufficient history to compute a …
