The Black-Litterman model combines investor's personal views with historical data and gives optimal portfolio weights. In (Andrei Hsu, 2020), they reviewed the original Black-Litterman model and modified it in order to fit it into a Bayesian framework, when a certain number of assets is considered. They used the idea by (Leonard Hsu, 1992) for a multivariate normal prior on the logarithm of the covariance matrix. When implemented and applied to a large number of assets such as all the S P500 companies, they ran into memory allocation and running time issues. In this paper, we reduce the dimensions by considering Bayesian factor models, which solve the asset allocation problems for a large number of assets. In addition, we will conduct sensitivity analysis for the confidence levels that the investors have to input.
