Background Assumptions
As an investor you want to maximize the returns for a given level of risk.Your portfolio includes all of your assets and liabilities
![Page 3: Chapter 6 An Introduction to Portfolio Management](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081503/5681399e550346895da1391d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

The relationship between the returns for assets in the portfolio is important.A good portfolio is not simply a collection of individually good investments.

Risk Aversion
Given a choice between two assets with equal rates of return, most investors will select the asset with the lower level of risk.

Evidence ThatEvidence ThatInvestors are Risk AverseInvestors are Risk Averse
Many investors purchase insurance for: life, automobile, health, and disability income. The purchaser trades known costs for unknown risk of loss.Yield on bonds increases with risk classifications from AAA to AA to A….

Markowitz Portfolio TheoryMarkowitz Portfolio Theory
Quantifies riskDerives the expected rate of return and expected risk for a portfolio of assets.

Assumptions of Assumptions of Markowitz Portfolio TheoryMarkowitz Portfolio Theory
1. Investors consider each investment alternative as being presented by a probability distribution of expected returns over some holding period.
![Page 10: Chapter 6 An Introduction to Portfolio Management](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081503/5681399e550346895da1391d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Assumptions of Assumptions of Markowitz Portfolio TheoryMarkowitz Portfolio Theory
2. Investors maximize one-period expected utility, and their utility curves demonstrate diminishing marginal utility of wealth.
![Page 11: Chapter 6 An Introduction to Portfolio Management](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081503/5681399e550346895da1391d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Assumptions of Assumptions of Markowitz Portfolio TheoryMarkowitz Portfolio Theory
3. Investors estimate the risk of the portfolio on the basis of the variability of expected returns.
![Page 12: Chapter 6 An Introduction to Portfolio Management](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081503/5681399e550346895da1391d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Assumptions of Assumptions of Markowitz Portfolio TheoryMarkowitz Portfolio Theory
4. Investors base decisions solely on expected return and risk, so their utility curves are a function of expected return and the expected variance (or standard deviation) of returns only.
![Page 13: Chapter 6 An Introduction to Portfolio Management](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081503/5681399e550346895da1391d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Assumptions of Assumptions of Markowitz Portfolio TheoryMarkowitz Portfolio Theory
5. For a given risk level, investors prefer higher returns to lower returns. Similarly, for a given level of expected returns, investors prefer less risk to more risk.
![Page 14: Chapter 6 An Introduction to Portfolio Management](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081503/5681399e550346895da1391d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Markowitz Portfolio TheoryMarkowitz Portfolio TheoryUsing these five assumptions, a single asset or portfolio of assets is considered to be efficient if no other asset or portfolio of assets offers higher expected return with the same (or lower) risk, or lower risk with the same (or higher) expected return.

Alternative Measures of RiskAlternative Measures of RiskVariance or standard deviation of expected returnRange of returnsReturns below expectations
Semivariance – a measure that only considers deviations below the mean
These measures of risk implicitly assume that investors want to minimize the damage from returns less than some target rate

Covariance of ReturnsCovariance of Returns
A measure of the degree to which two variables “move together” relative to their individual mean values over time

Covariance of ReturnsCovariance of Returns
For two assets, i and j, the covariance of rates of return is defined as:
Covij = E{[Ri - E(Ri)][Rj - E(Rj)]}

Any asset of a portfolio may be described by two characteristics:
The expected rate of returnThe expected standard deviations of returns
The correlation, measured by covariance, affects the portfolio standard deviationLow correlation reduces portfolio risk while not affecting the expected return

The Efficient FrontierThe Efficient Frontier
The efficient frontier represents that set of portfolios with the maximum rate of return for every given level of risk, or the minimum risk for every level of returnFrontier will be portfolios of investments rather than individual securities
Exceptions being the asset with the highest return and the asset with the lowest risk
