Scientific Foundation: Entropy vs. Volatility

How information-theoretic risk signals complement volatility in bond and foreign-exchange markets

The Limits of Volatility in Bonds and FX

Duration, credit-spread and currency-volatility metrics each capture only part of market risk, particularly during rates, credit and FX dislocations.

  • Non-normality: Credit spread returns exhibit fat tails and negative skewness (Mandelbrot, 1963) — standard deviation understates the risk.
  • Asymmetry blindness: Variance penalises upside and downside equally — inconsistent with convex bond return profiles and investor loss aversion (Kahneman & Tversky, 1979).
  • Backward-looking: Realised vol rises after a credit event. Entropy detects distributional stress early (Gradojevic & Caric, 2017).
  • Regime-blind: A single spread metric cannot distinguish a carry-driven compression from a pre-crisis tightening with similar vol but very different risk profiles.

Shannon Entropy as Risk Measure

First formalised by Claude Shannon (1948), entropy captures the full informational complexity of any return distribution:

H(X) = − Σ pᵢ · log₂(pᵢ)
  • Distribution-free: Valid under fat tails, bimodality and regime switches — no Gaussian assumption (Scrucca, 2024).
  • Tail-sensitive: Rényi entropy calibrates explicitly to tail behaviour (Lassance & Vrins, 2019).
  • Early warning: Identified every major credit crisis 1998–2026: GFC, COVID, 2022 rate shock, 2025 tariff episode (Fernandez-Mejia et al., 2025).
  • Predictive power: Twice the cross-sectional return explanatory power of standard duration/spread models (PLOS ONE, 2015).
