| CFAonTheBrain | can someone please explain why? |
| UFCRP | The example in the notes here is a good one. A Bond Index will contain an overtly large number of different types of bonds ranging in difference in maturity, duration, quality, and callability, etc. Using each of these differences, you can box in bonds with similar criterea and then base your sample from the population of each box. Therefore, stratifying (a.k.a. arranging) the bonds allows you to take a sample from each to represent the majority of what is held in the index. You're basically picking from the mean of each bond category. |
Your review questions and global ranking system were so helpful.
