Resumen Hoy en día, la gesión de fondos emplea el méodo acivo y pasivo paa la adminisación de caeas. Los fondos coizados en bolsa (EF po sus siglas en inglés) son insumenos muy económicos que pemien cubi la pae pasiva de la invesión. Esos fondos exisen paa acciones, bonos y mecados de maeias pimas. En la mayoía de los casos, el valo subyacene de un EF es un Índice. Además de las invesions en EF, algunos mecados uilizan ambién EF invesos (o sho), que aumenan las ganancias de los gesoes en mecados a la baja y po ano, ofecen una posibilidad de cobeua muy compeiiva. Paa compende mejo el valo de esos EF invesos como insumenos de una cobeua pefeca, uilizamos daos empíicos del índice DAX de la Bolsa alemana. Obviamene, uiliza EF invesos paa la cobeua no puede neualiza compleamene las pédidas del insumeno subyacene. La cobeua cuzada de una caea individual empleando el ShoDAX EF mosó una gan educción del iesgo. Como medidas de iesgo, usamos la vaianza, la desviación absolua y algunas Pobabilidades Objeivo-Fallo, es deci, de obene menos que el objeivo espeado (age Shofall Pobabiliy, SP). Con el fin de encona caeas eficienes paa la cobeua cuzada, desaollamos dos algoimos que no pecisan de sofwae de opimización lineal y lineal enea mixa.

Insead of index acking, like some yeas ago, fund manages oday buy he index of a make o seco. Exchange aded Funds (EF) is a financial insumen which offes one of he efficien ways o do his so called indexing. As hey ae aded evey day a he exchange boad and poduce low managemen fees, hey ae an ineesing invesmen possibiliy fo pivae invesos, oo. Concening he isk, EF can be denoes as safe as a single sock of his make. An EF is a econsuced index o, if in some egions o secos no index exiss, of an adequae pofolio whose sucue is publicized.

In he case of fuues, he inveso has o pay he so called combi -pice fo evey polongaion o olling he hedge fowad 4. his pice includes he buying of he old pu and selling one wih a lae expiaion dae. he sho EF do no consiue a conacual claim like OC opions, fowads and sucued poducs. heefoe EFs ae no in he bankup esae in he case of bankupcy of he financial insiue which issued he insumen. Sho EF as invesmen insumen exis wih and wihou leveage effec. In many counies, he insuance fund of insuance companies mus no be invesed in insumens wih such leveage effecs which offe he use of sho fuues o opions. he managemen fee of an EF is low compaed wih ohe insumens fo indexing. his paymen is fo a long EF abou 0.5% - 0.6% pe annum and fo a sho EF abou 0.3% - 0.8%. Fo some EFs exiss a spead beween he pice o buy and o sell. hese EFs should be used fo long em invesmens. In he following he diffeen hedging appoaches ae depiced befoe he sho EF and is hedging chaace will be exploed.. Hedging, Insuance and Immunizaion o poec a pofolio agains losses, diffeen financial insumens wee developed. Opions and fuues ae some old and famous examples. he pocess of hedging can be defined in a vey geneal way as he empoay compensaion of losses of one o moe asses by he pofi of one o some ohe invesmens. In a well divesified pofolio he included asses have o do his compensaion, bu no in a empoay way. heefoe he consucion of a pofolio wih minimized eun vaiance is denoed as divesificaion and no as hedging (alhough i educes isk by compensaion). he empiical measued negaive coelaion of sock euns nomally does no shofall -0.3. Many pais of asses have such weak compensaion poenial. In he popely sense, hedging insumens fo an asse, index o pofolio, should have a moe negaive coelaion wih he eun of his asse, index o pofolio. he coelaion of he euns of sho selling o a sho fuue wih he eun of he undelying is exacly o vey closed o -. hese hedging insumens offe a pefec hedge o compensaion of losses and on he ohe side of pofis, oo. hey immunize he value of he undelying asse agains any developmen in is pice. heefoe, his hedging ype is called immunizaion 5. In he case of an individual pofolio, he undelying of he hedging insumen in 3 Singleon C., (004). 4 See Hull, J., (99), pp. 03f. 5 Immunizaion is ofen associaed wih he hedge of bond pofolios agains changes in he yield o make (see Faell J.

mos cases won be conguen wih his pofolio. heefoe he opimal quaniy x* of he hedging insumens fo his pofolio mus be deemined by opimizaion. he case of inconguen 6 hedging insumens is called coss hedge. If an inveso likes o hedge his pofolio agains losses bu believes ha he make could also be bullish, he will use only x < x* of he hedging insumen. his case is called nomal hedge. When he believes moe in a beaish make, he will apply x > x* o hedge his asses. his poecion is denoed as evesed hedge 7. As shown in Figue, he quaniy x has an influence o he pofis, oo. When he poecion should esic he losses while he chance o achieve pofis should emain, his ype of hedge is denoed as pofolio insuance 8. his hedge exiss e.g. when an inveso buys a pu opion o hedge he value of an asse. If he elaionship of he pu opion and he undelying asse which should be hedged is fixed by e.g. : i is called fix hedge 9. If he elaionship is changing ove he ime, a dynamic way of hedging is applied. An example fo a dynamic hedge is he dela hedge. his means, ha he numbe of pus will be changed duing he duaion 0. he aim is, o have always exacly he numbe of pus which ae necessay o compensae he change of he asse value by he change of his numbe of pu pice. A consequence of his saegy is ha pofis ae handled in he same way. heefoe, dela hedging can be denoed as a kind of immunizaion. Ohe dynamically saegies which ae founded on he changing of he volume of socks and of cash ae someimes called pofolio insuance-elaed. In Figue he elaionship of he diffeen hedging appoaches and he value of an asse (pofolio o index) which should be poeced is shown as linea alhough he elaionships has in some cases weak nonlinea defomaions. hedged asse value insuance pefec hedge fix hedge evesed hedge (x>x*) coss hedge (x=x*) nomal hedge (x<x*) asse unhedged Figue : Hedging-appoaches immunizaion asse value Hedge-EF-.dsf 0709 he hedging capaciy of a sho EF was no included in he discussion of he adiional hedging classes. his will be done moe deailed in he following.
