Based on the results of author Andrew Pole’s own research and experience running a statistical arbitrage hedge fund for eight years, in partnership with a group whose own history stretches back to the dawn of what was first called pairs trading, this unique guide provides detailed insights into the nuances of a proven investment strategy. Filled with in-depth insights and expert advice, Statistical Arbitrage contains comprehensive analysis that will appeal to both investors looking for an overview of this discipline, as well as quants looking for critical insights into modeling, risk management, and implementation of the strategy.
