}}

A stochastic investment model tries to forecast how returns and prices on different assets or asset classes, (e. g. equities or bonds) vary over time. Stochastic models are not applied for making point estimation rather interval estimation and they use different stochastic processes.{{clarify|rason=different to what|date=January 2012}} Investment models can be classified into single-asset and multi-asset models.
