Abstract

The objective of this study is to propose a new Glide Path that dynamically adjusts the risky asset inclusion ratio of the Target Date Fund by simultaneously considering the market's forecast volatility as well as the time of investor retirement, and to compare the investment performance with the traditional Target Date Fund. Forecasts of market volatility utilize historical volatility, time series model GARCH volatility, and the volatility index VKOSPI. The investment performance of the new dynamic Glide Path, which considers stock market volatility has been shown to be excellent during the analysis period from 2003 to 2020. In all three volatility prediction models, Sharpe Ratio, an investment performance indicator, is improved with higher returns and lower risks than traditional static Glide Path, which considers only retirement date. The empirical results of this study present the potential for the utilization of the suggested Glide Path in the Target Date Fund management industry as well as retirees.

본 연구의 목적은 투자자의 은퇴 시점뿐만 아니라 시장의 예측 변동성을 동시에 고려하여 Target Date Fund의 위험자산 편입 비율을 동적으로 조정하는 새로운 Glide Path를 제안하고, 은퇴 시점만 고려하여 위험자산 편입 비율이 정해지는 전통적 Glide Path와 투자 성과를 비교 분석하는 것이다. 시장 변동성의 예측치로는 역사적 변동성, 시계열모형인 GARCH 변동성, 그리고 변동성지수인 VKOSPI를 활용하였으며, 2003년부터 2020년까지의 분석 기간에서 변동성을 고려하는 새로운 동적 Glide Path의 투자 성과가 우수함을 보여주었다. 3가지 변동성 예측모형 모두에서 은퇴 시점만을 고려하는 Glide Path보다 수익률은 더 높고 위험은 더 낮아지면서 투자 성과 지표인 Sharpe Ratio가 개선되었다. 실증 분석 결과는 은퇴예정자뿐만 아니라 Target Date Fund 운용업계에 새로운 Glide Path의 활용 가능성을 제시하고 있다.
