A Hybrid Factor Model is a quantitative financial model that combines elements of both statistical and fundamental factor models to explain and predict asset returns and risk. This approach seeks to leverage the data-driven insights of statistical methods with the economic interpretability of fundamental factors.
Mechanism
The mechanism typically involves using statistical techniques, such as principal component analysis or independent component analysis, to extract latent factors from asset return data. These statistically derived factors are then integrated with pre-defined fundamental factors, like value, momentum, or growth, which are often based on economic theory or market observations.
Methodology
The methodology for constructing a hybrid factor model in crypto markets entails identifying relevant on-chain metrics, market microstructure data, and macroeconomic indicators as potential factors. The model then employs regression analysis to determine the sensitivity of individual digital assets to these combined factors. This allows for more granular risk decomposition, performance attribution, and refined portfolio construction strategies.
Statistical factor models provide a mathematical lens to detect and quantify latent risk concentrations that traditional diversification methods obscure.
