RISK DIVERSIFICATION: SYSTEMATIC AND UNSYSTEMATIC RISK
? When
more and more securities are included in a portfolio, the risk of individual securities in the portfolio is reduced. ? This risk totally vanishes when the number of securities is very large. ? But the risk represented by covariance remains. ? Risk has two parts:
1.
2.
Diversifiable (unsystematic) Non-diversifiable (systematic)
Systematic Risk
8
? Systematic
risk arises on account of the economywide uncertainties and the tendency of individual securities to move together with changes in the market. ? This part of risk cannot be reduced through diversification. ? It is also known as market risk. ? Investors are exposed to market risk even when they hold well-diversified portfolios of securities.
Examples of Systematic Risk

Unsystematic Risk
10
? Unsystematic
risk arises from the unique uncertainties of individual securities. ? It is also called unique risk. ? These uncertainties are diversifiable if a large numbers of securities are combined to form well-diversified portfolios. ? Uncertainties of individual securities in a portfolio cancel out each other. ? Unsystematic risk can be totally reduced through diversification.

MULTIPLE RISKY ASSETS AND A RISK-FREE ASSET
? In
a market situation, a large number of investors holding portfolios consisting of a risk-free security and multiple risky securities participate.
18
Risk-return relationship for portfolio of risky and risk-free securities
?We draw three lines from the risk-free rate (5%) to the three portfolios. Each line shows the manner in which capital is allocated. This line is called the capital allocation line. ?Portfolio M is the optimum risky portfolio, which can be combined with the risk-free asset.
19
The capital market line
?The capital market line (CML) is an efficient set of riskfree and risky securities, and it shows the risk-return trade-off in the market equilibrium.
Separation Theory
20
? According
to the separation theory, the choice of portfolio involves two separate steps. ? The first step involves the determination of the optimum risky portfolio. ? The second step concerns with the investor’s decision to form portfolio of the risk-free asset and the optimum risky portfolio depending on her risk preferences.

CAPITAL ASSET PRICING MODEL (CAPM)
? The
capital asset pricing model (CAPM) is a model that provides a framework to determine the required rate of return on an asset and indicates the relationship between return and risk of the asset. ? The required rate of return specified by CAPM helps in valuing an asset. ? One can also compare the expected (estimated) rate of return on an asset with its required rate of return and determine whether the asset is fairly valued. ? Under CAPM, the security market line (SML) exemplifies the relationship between an asset’s risk and its required rate of return.

Implications
28
? Investors
will always combine a risk-free asset with a market portfolio of risky assets. They will invest in risky assets in proportion to their market value.
?
Investors will be compensated only for that risk which they cannot diversify. can expect returns from their investment according to the risk.
? Investors
Limitations
29
?It is based on unrealistic assumptions. ? It is difficult to test the validity of CAPM. ? Betas do not remain stable over time.

THE ARBITRAGE PRICING THEORY (APT)
? The
act of taking advantage of a price differential between two or more markets is referred to as arbitrage. ? The Arbitrage Pricing Theory (APT) describes the method of bring a mispriced asset in line with its expected price. ? An asset is considered mispriced if its current price is different from the predicted price as per the model. ? The fundamental logic of APT is that investors always indulge in arbitrage whenever they find differences in the returns of assets with similar risk characteristics.

it is the compensation, over and above, the risk-free rate of return that investors require for the risk contributed by the factor.
? One
could use past data on the forecasted and actual values to determine the premium.
Factor beta
36
? The
beta of the factor is the sensitivity of the asset’s return to the changes in the factor. can use regression approach to calculate the factor beta.
