What the study examines

This study reconstructs all 30 BRVM 30 securities from official market bulletins and examines how daily covariance scales across institutional risk horizons under float-cap, equal and inverse-volatility portfolio constructions. It combines a full horizon-risk term structure with activity diagnostics and independent daily price-limit sequences to distinguish portfolio-weight effects from competing market-microstructure explanations.
