Abstract: Managing alternative risk premia (ARP) portfolios is a challenging task, due to the complexities of these types of investments. In this article, we present a purely quantitative approach that relies on performance persistence among ARP strategies while ensuring diversification by classifying the ARP indices using unsupervised hierarchical clustering. This cluster-momentum portfolio shows a superior performance when compared to a set of internally built benchmarks and also of existing ARP asset manager funds. It seems that persistence in performance can be capitalized in ARP, while the clustering technique achieves its objective of risk-reduction due to portfolio diversification. Moreover, the cluster-momentum portfolio appears to be resilient to parameter modifications.
