Selected Robust Methods for Camp Model Estimation

Abstract: This paper presents evidence that Ordinary Least Squares estimators of beta coefficients of major firms and portfolios are highly sensitive to observations of extremes in market index returns. This sensitivity is rooted in the inconsistency of the quadratic loss function in financial theory. By introducing considerations of risk aversion into the estimation procedure using alternative estimators measures of variability we can overcome this lack of robustness and improve the reliability of the results.

“…They also found that the robust MM and LTS estimators and daily returns data outperformed the OLS estimator in terms of efficiency. This finding was then validated by the Jackknife resampling method and consistent with other studies (e.g., Bowie and Bradfield, 1998 ; Chan and Lakonishok, 1992 ; Serra and Martelanc, 2013 ; Shalit and Yitzhaki, 2002 ; Trzpiot, 2013 ). However, this research employed only one horizon, five-year data.…”

“…A similar study, Phuoc (2018) was conducted to estimate the Jensen's Alpha using the CAPM using both daily and monthly data, five-year horizon data, and the OLS, MM, parametric Bayes estimators. The author found the daily data yielded a more efficient Alpha estimate than monthly data using all three estimators and in line with another study ( Trzpiot, 2013 ). More importantly, this finding was checked with and validated by Jackknife resampling results.…”
