Risk Aversion
An individual is said to be risk averse if she prefers less risk for the same expected return.
» E.g. - Given a choice between $100 for sure, or a risky gamble in which the expected payoff is $100, a risk averse individual will choose the sure payoff.
Individuals are generally risk averse when it comes to situations in which a large fraction of their wealth is at risk.

Implications of Risk Aversion
Individuals who are risk averse will try to avoid “fair bets.”
» Hedging can be valuable.
Risk averse individuals require higher expected returns on riskier investments.
Whether an individual undertakes a risky investment will depend upon three things:
» The individual’s utility function.
» The individual’s initial wealth.
» The payoffs on the risky investment relative to those on a riskfree investment.
Issues:
» How do you measure risk?
» How do you compare risk and return?

Measuring Realized Returns
We measure the return on a portfolio, RP, in period t as:
where wj = fraction of the portfolio’s total value invested in stock j, j=1,…,N.
» wj > 0 is a long position.
» wj < 0 is a short position; j wj = 1
and Rjt is the return to asset j at time t = (Pt-Pt-1+Dt)/Pt-1.
Stock market indices:
» Equally weighted: w1=w2=…=wN=1/N
» Value weighted: wj= Proportion of market capitalization
We measure the sample average return over the period as:

The risk premium for individual shares is not closely related to their volatility.

» Begs the question of why one would hold an individual stock.

Diversification: The Basic Idea
Construct portfolios of securities that offer the highest expected return for a given level of risk.
The risk of a portfolio will be measured by its standard deviation (or variance, same result).
Diversification plays an important role in designing efficient portfolios (I.e. portfolios whose return is maximized for a given level of risk or, equivalently, portfolios whose risk is minimized for a given level of return).

Fire Insurance PoliciesAn example of diversification in a two-asset portfolio
• Consider 2 assets:
• Your house, worth $100,000
• Insurance Policy
• Two things can happen in the future:
• Your house will burn down with probability 10% resulting in a total loss
• Your house does not burn down, retaining its full value
• 2 questions:
• What is the riskiness of each of these assets held seperately and together as a portfolio?
• What is the most you would be willing to pay for the insurance?

Measuring Expected Portfolio Returns
The expected rate of return on a portfolio of stocks is:
The expected rate of return on a portfolio is a weighted average of the expected rates of return on the individual stocks.
In the two-asset case:
The expected return on our portfolio depends on two things: (1) the portfolio weights and the (2) the individual asset returns.

Measuring Portfolio Risk
The risk of a portfolio is measured by its standard deviation or variance.
The variance for the two stock case is:
or, equivalently,
The risk of our portfolio depends on the 3 things: (1) the portfolio weights, (2) the individual asset risks and (3) the pairwise correlations between the assets

Suppose you have just two assets (asset 1 and asset 2) to invest in with:
What do the risk/return combinations of portfolios of assets 1 and 2 look like? (I.e. how does risk and return change with changes in the portfolio weights?)

Two Asset Case
We want to know where the portfolios of stocks 1 and 2 plot in the risk-return diagram.
» Using (as before): wj = fraction of the portfolio’s total value invested in stock j, j=1,2
» wj > 0 is a long position.
» wj < 0 is a short position;
» w2 = 1- w1
We need to compute expectation and standard deviation of the portfolio return:
We shall consider three cases:
12 = -1
12 = 1
-1< 12 < 1

Minimum Variance Portfolio
What is the upper limit for the benefits from diversification?
» Determine the portfolio that gives the smallest possible variance.
– We call this the global minimum-variance portfolio.
For the two stock case, the global minimum variance portfolio has the following portfolio weights:
The variance of the global minimum-variance portfolio is:

Case 2:Perfect Positive Correlation : (12 = 1)
The global minimum variance portfolio has a variance of zero (if you can short-sell)
The portfolio weights for the global minimum variance portfolio are:
» Short sell one of the assets
» Long position in the other asset.
If you cannot short sell, then risk is lowest if you put all your wealth into the lower risk asset.

Imperfect Correlation
What happens in the general case where -1<12< 1?
» With less than perfect correlation, -1<12< 2/1 , diversification helps reduce risk, but risk cannot be eliminated completely.
– Minimum variance portfolio has positive weights in both assets
» If correlation is large, 2/1<12< 1, there are no gains to diversification.
– Minimum variance portfolio has negative weight in one asset

Efficient Portfolios with Multiple Assets
With multiple assets, the set of feasible portfolios is a hyperbola.
Efficient portfolios are those on the thick part of the curve in the figure.
» They offer the highest expected return for a given level of risk, or alternatively the lowest level of risk for a given level of expected return.
Assuming investors want to maximize expected return for a given level of risk, they should hold only efficient portfolios.
Common sense procedures:
» Invest in stocks in different industries.
» Invest in both large and small company stocks.
» Diversify across asset classes.
– Stocks
– Bonds
– Real Estate
» Diversify internationally.

Diversification with Multiple Assets
What exactly happens as weput more and more securitiesinto a portfolio? This question was examined
empirically by Wagner and Lau (1971). They constructed portfolios using 1 to 20 randomly selected NYSE stocks and applying equal weights to each security. Then they computed the risk of each portfolio.

Limits to DiversificationForming Portfolios with Many Assets
Consider an equally-weighted portfolio. The variance of such a portfolio is:
As the number of stocks gets large, the variance of the portfolio approaches:
The standard deviation of a well-diversified portfolio is equal to the square root of the average covariance between the stocks in the portfolio.

Examples of firm-specific risk
» A firm’s CEO is killed in an auto accident.
» A strike is declared at one of the firm’s plants.
» A firm finds oil on its property.
» A firm unexpectedly wins a large government contract.
Examples of market risk:
» Long-term interest rates increase unexpectedly.
» The Fed follows a more restrictive monetary policy.
» The U.S. Congress votes a massive tax cut.
» The value of the U.S. dollar unexpectedly declines relative to other currencies.

Summary
It is not possible to characterize securities in terms of risk alone
» Need to understand risk
Risky investments
» Riskier investments have higher returns
» Risk premia are not related to the risk of individual assets
Diversification benefits
» Depend on correlation of assets
» Possibility of short sales
» Cannot eliminate market risk
Minimum variance portfolios
» Riskless if correlation perfectly negative
