Holdings-based vs. Returns-based Style Analysis Models

(from Morningstar website)

Holdings-based

  • Uses characteristics of underlying securities

Returns-based

  • More widely used among financial professionals, because

the input data (monthly returns) is (sic) widely available Morningstar has long been a proponent of holdings-based style analysis but recognizes that there may be situations where returns-based analysis can also be helpful. The company's institutional research platform … combines advanced holdings-based and returns-based style analysis. Ideally, practitioners should use both approaches.
