trade-off. Up until the introduction of Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) in 1964‚ the estimation of risk was largely based on the historical performances of individual security rather than a precise geometric or mathematic relationship. Therefore‚ this essay would contribute a lot to the discussions on CAPM and the Arbitrage Pricing Model as well as their comparison. Theoretical Background One fundamental theory behind CAPM and other asset pricing models is the portfolio selection theory which

However‚ both of the two approaches are unstable and untenable to some extent then they also followed with many critiques and queries from the publicity.
