hard · CFA Level I quant
An analyst is using 'Bootstrap Resampling' to estimate the standard error of the median return for a portfolio. Compared to 'Monte Carlo' simulation, the primary advantage of the bootstrap is that it:
- Allows the analyst to model 'what-if' scenarios with variables outside the historical set.
- Does not require an assumption about the underlying distribution of the data.
- Provides more accurate results when the sample size is extremely small (e.g., n < 5).
