Feasible Implied Correlation Matrices from Factor Structures
由因子结构构造可行的隐含相关矩阵
Forward-looking correlations are of interest in different financial applications, including factor-based asset pricing, forecasting stock-price movements or pricing index options. With a focus on non-FX markets, this paper defines necessary conditions for option implied correlation matrices to be mathematically and economically feasible and argues, that existing models are typically not capable of guaranteeing so. To overcome this difficulty, the problem is addressed from…
