Abstract
The use of advanced econometric techniques is becoming more and more standard in risk management and investments. Empirical results are important for, e.g., deriving and evaluating asset pricing models, determining attractive investment strategies or the evaluation of the performance of mutual funds. On the basis of a number of examples, the author illustrates the power of empirical evidence, paying particular attention to cases where statistical evidence can be highly misleading.
