Estimation bias of futures hedging performance: A note

Author

  • Donald Lien

Abstract

The conventional approach applies an estimated optimal hedge ratio to evaluate and compare hedging performance. This note shows that the approach produces a biased result. Moreover, it tends to underestimate the true hedging performance. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Jrl Fut Mark 26:835–841, 2006
