Arbitrage Pricing Theory
From WilmottWiki
The Arbitrage Pricing Theory (APT) of Stephen Ross represents the returns on individual assets as a linear combination of multiple random factors. These random factors can be fundamental factors or statistical. For there to be no arbitrage opportunities there must be restrictions on the investment processes.
