The user will be able to initialize a custom view by copying from the historical full-sample estimates.

When specifying views for risk, it is also essential to carefully consider the specification of correlation coefficients. If a correlation matrix is not positive semi-definite, WPA can either correct to the nearest positive semi-definite matrix or re-initialize the respective view estimates to the historical correlation matrix.
