We theoretically characterize the behavior of machine learning asset pricing models. We prove that expected out-of-sample model performance—in terms of SDF Sharpe ratio and average pricing errors—is improving in model parameterization (or “complexity”). Our results predict that the best...

We study risk-return relationship in twenty Frontier country stock markets by setting up an international version of the intertemporal capital asset pricing model (International ICAPM). The systematic risk in this model comes from covariance of Frontier market stock index returns with world...
