Let us hypothesize that the return on any stock is a function of the return
on the market, changes in the level of interest rates, and a set of industry
indexes. If Ri is the return on stock i, then the return on stock i can be
related to the influences that affect its return in the following way:
Ri = ai* + bi*1I*1 + bi*2I*2 +..........+ bi*L IL* + ci

BY ASSUMPTION
1. Covariance between ci and cj is zero (E(cicj)=0)
for all stocks where i =1, ..., N and j=1, ..., N ( j i).

EFFECTIVENESS OF MULTI
INDEX MODEL
Multi index model lie in an intermediate position between the full historical
correlation matrix itself and the single index model.
The more indexes added the more complex things become and the more
accurately the historical matrix is reproduced but not ensured about the
future correlation matrices.

But led poorer prediction of the future correlation matrix and selection of
portfolio that has lower return at each risk level.

EFFECTIVENESS OF MULTI
INDEX MODEL(contd.)
The evidence that a generalized multi-index model, where the indexes are
extracted according to explanatory power from past data, does not perform
as well as a single-index model is very strong.
This does not imply that a different form of a multi-index model might not
work better than a single-index model. Indexes based on interest rates or
oil prices or other fundamental factors affecting different companies in
different ways may lead to better performance.
