Mean-Variance Analysis Mean-variance portfolio theory is based on the idea that the value of investment opportunities can be meaningfully measured in terms of mean return and variance of return. Markowitz called this approach to portfolio formation mean-variance analysis. Mean-variance analysis is based on the following assumptions: 1. All investors are risk averse; they prefer less risk to more for the same level of expected return. 2. Expected returns for all assets are known. 3. The

Suppose we are in…. The Land of All Assets The end result of our time spent in the Land of All Assets was that an investor in the Mean-Variance World would complete the following process to construct her or his optimal portfolio: 1) The investor would first estimate the various inputs needed to build the Old Efficient Frontier. The inputs that the investor needs to estimate are the expected returns and the variances of all the risky assets‚ and all of the covariance terms across all of the risky

requirements do client expect from their portfolio managers? We have two major requirements of a Portfolio Manager: 1. The ability to derive above average returns for a given risk class (large risk-adjusted returns); and 2. The ability to completely diversify the portfolio to eliminate all unsystematic risk.
