- Diversification ratio: metric used to quantify the level of diversification within a portfolio. MantaRisk uses the definition according to Choueifaty and Coignard (2008) where this ratio considers both the number of assets in the portfolio and the correlations between them. A higher diversification ratio indicates a more diversified portfolio, meaning the assets are less likely to move in the same direction, reducing overall portfolio risk.
- Expected return: defined as the average return over 5 years on a daily, weekly or monthly timeframe
- R Squared: proportion of the variance explained by the risk factors. 1 - R^2 is therefore equivalent to the idiosyncratic risk i.e. the portion of the portfolio which cannot be explained by the risk factors.
