摘要
In modern portfolio selection, financial investors in reality, especially institutional ones, routinely work with a large number of assets. Moreover, asset return data are often noisy. To meet these challenges, this paper develops a new latent factor model for high-dimensional portfolio selection under noisy asset returns. The new model employs a cellwise method for robust estimation of latent factors and a diagonally-dominant covariance structure to account for cross-sectional dependence in the idiosyncratic component. It has the advantage to be computationally efficient and nearly tuning-free. Comparing favorably with state-of-the-art competitors, a portfolio formed on the new model is able to achieve out-of-sample risk reduction and improve certainty equivalent returns after transaction costs across a wide range of real data sets.
