Abstract: | Test of unconditional mean-variance efficiency under weak distributional assumptions are developed using a generalized method of moments framework. These tests are potentially more robust than commonly employed tests which rely on the assumption that asset returns are normally distributed. Using returns for size-based portfolios from 1926 to 1988 it is shown that the conclusion concerning the mean-variance efficiency of market indexes can be sensitive to the test considered. |
