    Estimating Risk and Return

    An investor can allocate money between a risk-free security that has zero risk (β=0), and the market portfolio that has market risk (β=1). If 75% of the portfolio is invested in the market, then the portfolio will have a β=0.75. If only 25% is invested in the market, then the portfolio will have a market risk of β=0.25. The first example (β=0.75) might be taken by a less risk averse investor while the second example (β=0.25) illustrates the portfolio of a more risk averse investor. By allocating the investment money between 0 and 100% into the market portfolio, an investor can achieve any level of market risk desired.…

    Comparision and Contrast of Dcf and Capm

    The Capital Asset Model is an economic model for valuing stocks, bonds, and other assets and relating the risk with the expected return. The Capital Asset Model is based on the premise of the investor will demand risk premium which is simply what they expect to get back, for the additional risk taken. The Capital Asset Model uses a system that divides the portfolio 's risk into systematic and specific risk. Systematic risk is the risk of holding the market portfolio. As the market moves, each individual asset is more or less affected. Specific risk is the risk which is unique to an individual asset. It represents the asset returns with general market moves.…

Fo example, Williams just contracted with a new client who has $800,000 to invest. Based on an evaluation of the client’s risk tolerance, Williams assigned a maximum risk index of 0.05 fo the client.
