Alpha Premium Drives Non-Linear Returns
The Modelomni Alpha Premium is defined as the risk-adjusted outperformance achieved against a benchmark by compounding realised gains, and by setting a synthetic floor against market drawdowns to create a highly asymmetric return profile.
We achieve this by systematically removing volatility from the portfolio, dynamically entering and exiting the market as conditions dictate.
Delivering Alpha Premium
Our technology accomplishes this by dampening portfolio volatility through dynamic, condition-driven market entry and exit strategies.
The Alpha Premium Ratio demonstrates that our outperformance is driven by structural risk mitigation rather than amplified market beta. By explicitly rewarding tactically harvested gains and actively generated downside alpha during periods of market stress, the ratio highlights our ability to protect capital while capturing upside.
Alpha Premium (AP) Ratio =
Building upon the Sortino Ratio, the Alpha Premium Ratio evaluates outperformance not against standard market turbulence, but against the benchmark's effective downside volatility. This is calculated by explicitly scaling the benchmark's downside risk by the model's active downside beta (βdown) and its average active exposure (Eavg). By engineering asymmetry during drawdowns and mitigating risk via tactical cash sweeps, the model shrinks this effective risk, systematically amplifying the ratio.
We use Alpha Premium (AP) in conjunction with absolute alpha generation (RM − RB) and intraday maximum drawdown (MDDid) to drive the alpha generation capability of our technology.
