Abstract:
As the business and industry expanded and economy became more complex in
nature, a need for permanent finance arose. Entrepreneurs require money for long-term
needs, were as investors demand liquidity the solution to this problem gave way for an
origin of stock exchange, which is a ready market for investment and liquidity.
As per the securities contract Act, 1956, Stock Exchange means any body of individuals
whether incorporated or not, constituted for the purpose of regulating or controlling the
business of buying, selling or dealing in securities.
Aim:
1 To evaluate the performance of 15 different companies Based on Risk, Rate of return
and Coefficient of Correlation

There is an extraordinary amount of ignorance and of prejudice born out of
ignorance with regard to nature and function of stock exchange as economic development
proceeds; the scope for acquisition and ownership of capital by private individuals also
grows. Along with it, the opportunity for a stock exchange to render the service of
stimulating private savings and challenging such savings into productive investment
exists on a vastly great scale. These are services, which the stock exchange alone can
render efficiently

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Indian financial market consists of money market and capital market. Money market is
mainly for the short-term needs and capital market for long term needs.
CAPITAL MARKET AND ITS STRUCTURE
Capital market is a financial market, which provides and facilitates an orderly exchange
of long term needs. The capital market in India is classified into
Primary market or new issuance market
Secondary market
The primary market deals with new issue of long term securities. Whereas the secondary
market deals with buying and selling of old, second hand, existing securities, which are
already listed in official trading list of recognized stock exchange.
Players of ‘New Issue Market’ are many, among them the most important are:
Merchant banker’s
Registrars
Collecting and coordinating bankers
Underwriters and brokers
The players of secondary market are:
Issuers of securities like companies
Intermediaries like brokers, and sub-brokers etc.
NEED FOR THE STUDY
As the business and industry expanded and economy became more complex in nature, a
need for permanent finance arose. Entrepreneurs require money for long-term needs,
were as investors demand liquidity the solution to this problem gave way for an origin of
stock exchange, which is a ready market for investment and liquidity.
As per the securities contract Act, 1956, Stock Exchange means any body of individuals
whether incorporated or not, constituted for the purpose of regulating or controlling the
business of buying, selling or dealing in securities.
SECURITIES INCLUDE
1. Shares, scrip's, stocks, bonds, debentures and other marketable Securities.
2. Government securities
3. Rights or interests in securities.
NATURE AND FUNCTION OF STOCK EXCHANGE
There is an extraordinary amount of ignorance and of prejudice born out of ignorance
with regard to nature and function of stock exchange as economic development proceeds;
the scope for acquisition and ownership of capital by private individuals also grows.
Along with it, the opportunity for a stock exchange to render the service of stimulating
private savings and challenging such savings into productive investment exists on a
vastly great scale. These are services, which the stock exchange alone can render
efficiently.
The stock exchange in India has an important role to play in the building of a real
shareholders democracy. To protect the interests of the investing public, the authorities of
the stock exchange have been increasingly subjecting not only its members to high
degree of discipline, but also those who use its facilities- joint stock companies and other
bodies in whose stocks and shares it deals.
The activities of the stock exchange are governed by a recognized code of conduct apart
from statutory regulations, investors both actual and potential are provided, through the
daily stock exchange quotations The job of the stock exchange and its members is to
satisfy the need of market for investments - to bring the buyers and sellers of investments
together, and to make the exchange of stock between them as simple and fair a process as
possible.
CHARACTERISTICS OF THE EXCHANGES IN INDIA
Traditionally, a stock exchange has been an association of individual members called
brokers, formed for the express purpose of regulating and facilitating the buying and
selling of securities by the public and institutions at large. A stock exchange in India
operates with the recognition from the government under the securities and contracts
(Regulation Act, 1956). The member brokers are essentially the middlemen, who transact
in securities on behalf of the public for a communism or on their behalf. There are at
present 26 stock exchanges in India. The largest among them is being the Bombay stock
exchange (BSE), which alone accounts for over 80% of due total volume of transactions
in shares in the country.
Securities and Exchanges Board of India (SEBI) has been setup in Bombay by the
Government to oversee the orderly development of stock exchanges in the country. All
companies wishing to raise capital from the public are required to list their securities on
at least one stock exchange thus, all ordinary shares, preferences shares and debentures of
publicity held companies are listed in one are more stock exchanges. Stock exchanges
also facilitate trading in the securities of the public sector companies as well as
government securities.
1.2 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

1.4 LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY:
1. The study is limited to only 12 companies.
2 Investors desired level of variance and desired expected return was not
taken into consideration
3. There may be scope for committing statistical errors.
CHAPTER 2
INDUSTRY PROFILE
INDIAN EQUITY MARKET
2.1 Introduction
Stock markets refer to a market place where investors can buy and sell stocks. The price
at which each buying and selling transaction takes is determined by the market forces (i.e.
demand and supply for a particular stock).
Let us take an example for a better understanding of how market forces determine stock
prices. ABC Co. Ltd. enjoys high investor confidence and there is an anticipation of an
upward movement in its stock price. More and more people would want to buy this stock
(i.e. high demand) and very few people will want to sell this stock at current market price
(i.e. less supply). Therefore, buyers will have to bid a higher price for this stock to match
the ask price from the seller which will increase the stock price of ABC Co. Ltd. On the
contrary, if there are more sellers than buyers (i.e. high supply and low demand) for the
stock of ABC Co. Ltd. in the market, its price will fall down.
In earlier times, buyers and sellers used to assemble at stock exchanges to make a
transaction but now with the dawn of IT, most of the operations are done electronically
and the stock markets have become almost paperless. Now investors dont have to gather
at the Exchanges, and can trade freely from their home or office over the phone or
through Internet.
2.2 History of the Indian Stock Market - The Origin
One of the oldest stock markets in Asia, the Indian Stock Markets have a 200 years old
history.
18th Century

1865 A disastrous slump began at the end of the American Civil War (as an example, Bank of Bombay Share which had touched Rs. 2850 could only be sold at Rs. 87)
2.1 Table showing the history of Indian stock market

the country. Lahore Estock Exchange was closed down after the partition of India, and
later on merged with the Delhi Stock Exchange. Bangalore Stock Exchange Limited was
registered in 1957 and got recognition only by 1963. Most of the other Exchanges were in
a miserable state till 1957 when they applied for recognition under Securities Contracts
(Regulations) Act, 1956. The Exchanges that were recognized under the Act were:
1. Bombay
2. Calcutta
3. Madras
4. Ahmedabad
5. Delhi

Indian Stock Markets. There was a sharp increase in number of Exchanges, listed
companies as well as their capital, which is visible from the following table:

2.1 Figure showing the public limited companies
Types of Transactions
The flowchart below describes the types of transactions that can be carried out on the
Indian stock exchanges:
2.2 Figure showing the Types of Transactions
Indian stock exchange allows a member broker to perform following activities:
Over The Counter Exchange of India (OTCEI)
Traditionally, trading in Stock Exchanges in India followed a conventional style where
people used to gather at the Exchange and bids and offers were made by open outcry.
This age-old trading mechanism in the Indian stock markets used to create much
functional inefficiency. Lack of liquidity and transparency, long settlement periods and
benami transactions are a few examples that adversely affected investors. In order to
overcome these inefficiencies, OTCEI was incorporated in 1990 under the Companies
Act 1956. OTCEI is the first screen based nationwide stock exchange in India created by
Unit Trust of India, Industrial Credit and Investment Corporation of India, Industrial
Development Bank of India, SBI Capital Markets, Industrial Finance Corporation of
India, General Insurance Corporation and its subsidiaries and CanBank Financial
Services.
Advantages of OTCEI
Greater liquidity and lesser risk of intermediary charges due to widely
spread trading mechanism across India
The screen-based scripless trading ensures transparency and accuracy of
prices
Faster settlement and transfer process as compared to other exchanges
Shorter allotment procedure (in case of a new issue) than other exchanges
National Stock Exchange:
In order to lift the Indian stock market trading system on par with the international
standards. On the basis of the recommendations of high powered Pherwani
Committee, the National Stock Exchange was incorporated in 1992 by Industrial
Development Bank of India, Industrial Credit and Investment Corporation of India,
Industrial Finance Corporation of India, all Insurance Corporations, selected
commercial banks and others.
NSE provides exposure to investors in two types of markets, namely:
1. Wholesale debt market 2. Capital market
Wholesale Debt Market - Similar to money market operations, debt market operations involve institutional investors and corporate bodies entering into transactions of high value in financial instrumets like treasury bills, government securities, commercial papers etc.Trading at NSE
Fully automated screen-based trading mechanism Strictly follows the principle of an order-driven market Trading members are linked through a communication network This network allows them to execute trade from their offices The prices at which the buyer and seller are willing to transact will appear
on the screen When the prices match the transaction will be completed
A confirmation slip will be printed at the office of the trading member Advantages of trading at NSE
Integrated network for trading in stock market of India Fully automated screen based system that provides higher degree of
transparency Investors can transact from any part of the country at uniform prices
Greater functional efficiency supported by totally computerized network
2.3 NATIONAL STOCK EXCHANGE
The National Stock Exchange (NSE) is India’s leading stock exchange covering
various cities and town across the country. NSE was set up by leading institutions to
provide a modern, fully automated screen – based trading system with national reach.
The exchange has brought about unparalleled transparency, speed and efficiency, safety
and market integrity. It has set up facilities that serve as a model for the securities
industry in terms of systems, practices and procedures.
NSE has played a catalytic role in reforming the Indian securities market in terms
of micro structure, market practices and trading volumes. The market today uses slate –
of – art information technology to provide an efficient and transparent trading, clearing
and settlement mechanism, and has witnessed several innovations in products and
services viz., dematerialization of stock exchange governance, screen based trading,
compression of settlement cycles, dematerialization and electronic transfer of securities,
securities lending and borrowing, professionalization of trading members, fine – turned
risk management systems, emergence of clearing corporations to assume counter party
risks, market of debt and derivative instruments and intensive use of information
technology.
The National Stock Exchange of India Limited has genesis in the report of the
High Powered Study Group of Establishment of New Stock Exchanges, which
recommended promotion of a National Stock Exchange by financial institutions (FIS) to
provide access to investors from all across the country on an equal footing. Based on the
recommendations, NSE was promoted by leading Financial Institutions at the behest of
the Government of India and was incorporated in November 1992 as a tax paying
company unlike other stock exchanges in the country.
On its recognition as a stock exchange under the Securities Contracts
(Regulation) Act, 1956 in April 1993, NSE commenced operations in the Wholesale
Debit Market (WDM) segment commenced operations in November 1994 operations in
Derivatives segment commenced in June 2000.
OUR MISSION
NSE’s, mission is setting the agenda for change in the securities markets in India. The
NSE was set-up with the main objectives of:
Establishing a nation wide trading facility for equities, debt instruments and
hybrids.
Ensuring equal access to investors all over the country through an appropriate
communication network.
Providing a fair, efficient and transparent securities market to investors using
electronic trading systems.
Enabling shorter settlement cycles and book entry settlements systems and
Meeting the current international standards of securities markets.
The standards set by NSE in terms of market practices and technology have
become industry benchmarks and are being emulated by other market participants. NSE
is more than a mere market facilitator. It’s that force which is guiding the industry
towards new horizons and greater opportunities.
PROMOTERS
NSE has been promoted by leading financial institutions, banks, insurance companies and
other financial intermediaries:

are distinctly visible. The logo symbolizes use of state of the art information technology
and satellite connectivity to bring about the change within the securities industry. The
logo symbolizes vibrancy and unleashing of creative energy to constantly bring about
change through innovation.
CORPORATE STRUCTURE
NSE is one of the first demulualised stock exchanges in the country, where the
ownership and management of the Exchange is completely divorced from the right to
trade on it. Though the impetus for its establishment came from policy makers in the
country, it has been setup as a public limited company, owned by the leading institutional
investors in the country.
From day one, NSE has adopted the form of a demutualised exchange the
ownership, management and trading is in the hands of three different sets of people. NSE
is owned by a set of leading financial institutions, banks, insurance companies and other
financial intermediaries and is managed by professional, who do not directly or indirectly
trade on the Exchange. This has completely eliminated any conflict of interest and helped
NSE in aggressively pursuing policies and practices within a public interest framework.
The NSE model however, does not preclude, but in fact accommodates
involvement, support and contribution of trading members in a variety of way. Its board
comprises of senior executives from promoter institutions, eminent professionals in the
fields of law, economics, accountancy, finance, taxation, etc. public representative,
nominees of SEBI and one full time executive of the Exchange.
While the Board deals with broad policy issues decisions relating to market
operations are delegated by the Board to various committee constituted by it. Such
committee includes representatives from trading members, professionals, the public and
the management. The day-to-day management of the Exchange is delegated to the
Managing Director who is supported by a team of professional staff.
2.4 BOMBAY STOCK EXCHANGE
The Stock Exchange, Mumbai, which was established in 1875 as “The Native
Share and Stockbrokers Association” (a voluntary non-profit making association), has
evolved over the years into it present status as the premier Stock Exchange in the country.
It may be noted that the Stock Exchange is the oldest one in Asia, even older than the
Tokyo Stock Exchange, which was founded in 1878.
The Exchange while providing an efficient market also upholds the interests of
the investors and ensures redressal of their grievances, whether against the companies or
its own member – brokers. It also strives to educate and enlighten the investors by
making available necessary informative inputs.
A Governing Board comprising of 9 elected directors (one third of them retire
every year by rotation) and Executive Director, three Government nominees, a Reserve
Bank of India nominee and five public representatives, is the apex which regulates the
exchange and decides its policies.
The Governing Board following the election of directors annually elects a
President, Vide President and an Honorary Treasurer from among the elected directors.
The Executive Director as the Chief Executive Officer is responsible for the day-
do-day administration of the Exchange.
The exchange has obtained permission from Securities and Exchange Board of
India (SEBI) for expansion of its BSE-on-Line Trading (BOLT) network to locations
outside Mumbai. In term of the permission granted by SEBI, the members of the
Exchange are free to install their trading terminals to cities where there are no Stock
Exchange. However, at centers where the other exchanges are located, the Exchange is
required to sign a Memorandum of Understanding with these Exchanges permitting it to
install the BOLT terminals in their jurisdictional areas.
The expression of BOLT network was inaugurated by the Finance Minister,
Government of India, Sri P. Chidambaram on August 30, 1997. The Exchange has signed
Memorandum of Understanding with eleven Stock Exchanges, viz., Calcutta, Pune,
Adhmedabad, Saurashtra, Kulch (Rajkot), Madaypradesh, Vadodara, Bhubaneshwar and
Magadh (i.e., Patna) Jaipur, Coimbatore and Chennai (Madras) to provide BOLT
connections to the members of these Exchanges after obtaining necessary clearance from
SEBI. The BOLT network has been expanded to centers outside Mumbai and covers 232
centres having 726 VSATs (Very Small Aperture Terminals) and 1020 TWSs (Trader
Work Stations) as on October 31, 1999. Of these, 648 VSATs and 872 TWSs
respectively are installed outside Mumbai. With the expansion of BOLT outside Mumbai.
The total average daily turnover at the Exchange has increased from Rs.1064 crores in
August 1997 to Rs. 1404 crores in April 1998 and further to Rs.2885 crores in October
1999.
The average daily turnover at the Exchange has increased from Rs. 851 crores in
1997-98 to R.1284 crores in 1998-99 and further to Rs.2885 crores in 1999-2000 (April –
October 1999). Some of the important aspects of the working of the stock Exchange,
Mumbai are discussed below.
TRADING
The Exchange has switched over from the open outcry trading system to a fully
automated computerized mode of trading known as BOLT (BSE On Line Trading)
System. This system, which is both order and quote driven was commissioned on March
14, 1995. It facilitates more efficient processing, automatic order matching and faster
execution of trades. Above all, the system is more transparent. The members now enter
orders / quotes on their Trader Work Stations (TWSs) in their offices instead of
assembling in the trading ring.
The strips traded on the Exchange have been classified into “A”, “B1”, “B2”,
“C”, “F” and “Z” group. The number of strips listed on the Exchange under “A”, “B1”
and “B2” groups which represent the equity segments as on October 1999 was 152, 1109
and 4510 respectively. The “F” group represents the debt market (fixed income
securities) segment wherein 670 securities were listed as at the end of October 1999. The
“Z” group was introduced in the month of July 1999 and covers the list of companies that
fail to comply with listing requirements and also fail to resolve investor complaints. The
“Z” group comprises of 539 scripts as of October 1999. The “C” group covers the odd
lot securities in “A”, “B1” and “B2” groups and Rights renunciations.
The stock Exchange, Mumbai, is the only Stock Exchange in the country to
provide a facility of on-line trading in odd lot securities and rights renunciations. This
facility of trading in odd lots of securities and Rights renunciations not only offers an exit
route to investors to dispose of their odd lot of securities but also provides them an
opportunity to consolidate their securities into market lots. Trading in this segment covers
all the scripts listed in the equity segment.
The trading cycle for all these groups of securities is weekly. The trading cycle
for “A, B1, B2”, “C” and “Z” group securities representing the equity segment is from
Monday to Friday and that for “F” group securities representing the debt market is from
Thursday to Wednesday. The Transactions in “A” group scripts are allowed to be carried
forward from one settlement to another settlement subject to a maximum of 75 days from
the date of outstanding positions in “A” group scripts. The trading session for carry
forward of transactions from one settlement to another is conducted on Saturdays, i.e., at
the end of every trading cycle in the equity segment.
Trading on the BOLT system is conducted from Monday to Friday between 10.00
a.m. and 3.30 p.m. while the carry – forward session for “A” group securities is
conducted on Saturdays between 10.00 a.m. and 12.30 p.m.
The Information Systems Department of the Exchange generates the following
statements that can be downloaded by the members in their back offices on a daily basis :
a. Statements giving details of the daily transactions entered into by the members.
b. Statements giving details of margins payable by the members in respect of the
trades executed by them.
The members are allowed to enter into transactions on behalf of their Institutional
clients, viz., Scheduled Commercial Banks, Indian Financial Institutions (IFIs) and
Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) and Mutual Funds registered with SEBI. The
settlement of the trades (money and securities) done on behalf of the Institutions may be
either through the member himself or through a SEBI registered Custodian appointed by
an institution. In case the delivery / payment is to be given or taken by a Custodian on
behalf of an Institution; the former has to confirm the trade done by a member. For this
purpose, the Custodians have been admitted as members of the Clearing House. In case
the Custodian does not confirm an institutional transaction, the liability for pay in funds
or securities devolves on the concerned member.

The system is normally made available for trading on all days except Saturdays,
Sunday & other holidays.
i. Pre-open phase:
The pre-open period is relevant only in the normal market. Order matching takes
place at the end of the session, based on which an opening price is computed &
assigned to all trades of pre-open.

continuous basis.

system is lost and the message to that effect is displayed at the trader workstation.
Back Office:
To know the trade position of the client , back-office is done in SCSL everyday
immediately after the trade ends. ‘STEEL PACK’ is the package used in back office
system. Steel City Software team was designed and maintained this “STEELPACK”
Package.
The main modules of back office system are:
Trading
Finance
Importing Exporting
Margins
Clearing
Business Controls
Payin-Payout
House Keeping
In the back office, first the Import Export module is opened where the
trade file of the days trade is collected and the text file was imported to the system.
There, the old closing prices are inserted by new prices from the Bhav copy file.
Bhav copy is the average of last half-an-hour prices of the scrips.
To calculate the net mark to market value, Bhav copy file is imported from
NSE/BSE/NCDEX/MCX. Net mark to market value is to be known to know the
profit or loss position of the client, basing on which the Trading Manager of SCSL
will decide whether the client can trade or not for the next day on comparing it with
the margin paid by the client.
After importing the Bhav copy file, the trading module is opened. In
trading module, the sauda status is known from the Sauda Manager’. Sauda manager
is the number of trade confirmations recorded. Confirmation of trading transaction
with brokerage commission is known as ‘Sauda’.

reports are made and are given to clients and to the accounts department. The bills are
prepared and sent to the respective clients.

reports; Client Wise Confirmation reports; Bills Summary reports; bad deliveries
reports; auctions reports; objections reports; margins reports; securities reports and
miscellaneous reports. The daily reports of various aspects relating to the trading
activities are maintained.
3. CLEARING:
Settlement of trades transacted on an exchange requires smooth, preferably
instantaneous, movement of securities and funds in accordance with the prescribed
schedule of pay-in / pay-out. Movement of securities has been almost instantaneous
in the dematerialized environment. Two depositories are in place to provide
electronic transfer of securities. 10 major stock exchanges accounting for about 99%
of turnover have been connected to depositories. All actively traded scrips are held,
traded and settled in de-mat form. NSE follows a different model where a clearing
corporation guarantees settlement obligations emanating from trades.
4 SETTLEMENTS:
The trades accumulated over a trading cycle are clubbed together at the end of the
trading cycle, positions (trades) are netted and the balance obligations are settled.
There is one type of settlement:
A. Rolling settlement:
In a rolling settlement, each trading day is considered as a trading period and
trades executed during the day are settled based on the net obligations for the day.
At nse, trades in rolling settlement are settled on a t+2 basis i.e. On the 2nd
working day. For arriving at the settlement day all intervening holidays, which include
bank holidays, nse holidays, saturdays and sundays are excluded. Typically trades taking
place on monday are settled on wednesday, tuesday's trades settled on hursday and so on.
In order to enhance liquidity, to shorten the settlement cycle and to promote market for
derivatives, sebi permitted rolling settlement in respect of selected shares and trades in
this segment are settled by de-mat delivery only.
In this type of settlement, for confirmed trades, the settling bank will
arrange for payment and clearance and depository for effecting transfers by electronic
book entry system. Canara bank provides the clearinghouse facility.
The following table and figure represent rolling settlement process.
A tabular representation of the settlement cycle for rolling settlement is given
below:

The Accounts/ Finance department maintains the accounts in SCSL. The
accounts are prepared in three forms. They are:
a. Client-wise net positions,
b. Scrip-wise net positions,
c. Pay-in and Pay-out settlement of funds.
8.DEMATERIALIZATION AND ELECTRONIC TRANSFER OF
SECURITIES:
Though de-mat was introduced in 1994, it came into existence in 1996. The
depositories Act, 1996 was passed to provide for the establishment of depositories in
securities with the objective of ensuring free transferability of securities with speed,
accuracy and security by dematerializing the securities in the depository model. A
depository holds securities in dematerialized form. It maintains ownership records of
securities and effects transfer of ownership through book entry.
The two depositories, National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL) and
Central Depository Services Limited (CDSL) provide services to investors and
clearing members through Depository Participants (DPs). They do not change the
investors and clearing members directly but charge their DPs, who are free to have
their own charge structure for their clients.
De-mat Process:
When a client places his physical shares for de-mat, SCSL after inputting the
information in depository participants sends the physical shares to the company,
which issued the shares. The client code number and the information and the clients
signature is sent to Share Holding Registrar.
There they verify whether the shares really belong to the client and whether the
signature is matching or not. Once they are satisfied that the information sent through
the DP’s are right, the shares are cleared and the information is passed on to the
client. The physical shares are then torn away as they already exist in electronic
form.
When a client enters into DP for de-mat purpose, he is given a unique code
member. He can know his share position easily. It is known as client ID number.
Advantages of Dematerialization:
The process of transfer of securities became faster. The fear of loosing the
share certificates is not there because of dematerialization. Theft, forgery, mutilation
of certificates is not found in dematerialization.
9. INTERMEDIARIES:
There are no intermediaries in between SCSL and NSE, BSE,NCDEX and
MCX. Similarly there are no intermediaries in between SCSL and professional
clients. Since SCSL is a share broker to NSE, BSE,NCDEX and MCX the
Clients operating in SCSL directly, on behalf of other clients are sub-brokers to the
ultimate clients who don’t operate the trade directly. So, there may be sub-brokers as
intermediaries in between SCSL and clients who do not trade directly in SCSL.
As mentioned earlier, SCSL is depository participant. So, SCSL acts as an
intermediary between clients and NSDL & CDSL.
10. MARKET INFORMATION:
In SCSL, daily the research analyst collects the market information and it is
analyzed. The market information is used to forecast the index movement, price
movement of the shares and enables the clients to make use of the information in
trading to get better results.
The research analyst in forecasting the market movement follows the technical
analysis, fundamental analysis and efficient market hypothesis. The research analyst
collects the information about the company, the industry and the economy through
different media to know the company’s position.
The research analyst follows the market closely by watching the price movement
of the shares in the market. The technical analysis is very helpful in making
investment decisions. The research analyst follows different tools of technical
analysis like Japanese candlestick method; Elliot wave theory; Dow theory; price
trends and volume trends; volatility; floating stock and volume of trade etc., to assess
the market.
Technical analysis reveals the movement of the scrip. It explains when to buy a share
and when to sell. So, the research analyst gives much important to the technical
analysis to forecast the price movement of the scrip accurately.
Since, the NSE & BSE are markets with strong form efficiency, as the market
discounts the information itself very quickly and changes as per the information, the
research analyst has only fewer jobs to do here.
The research analyst not only analyses the marketing information but, every day
in SCSL an edition of the research analyst’s, suggestions on scrips that have to be
bought and sold is also printed which helps the clients of SCSL to invest in shares
that are profitable. Mostly, the predictions of the research analyst about the market
movement prove to be accurate. So market information in SCSL is trust worthy.
3.7 STEPS TAKEN BEFORE THE REGISTRATION OF THE CLIENT:
1. Registration of the Client:

Qualifications, Date of Birth etc. He has to furnish his photographs and proof of Identity

with the problem of deciding which securities to hold and how much to invest in each.
The investor faces an infinite number of possible Portfolio or group of securities The risk
and return characteristics of Portfolios defer from those of individual securities
combining to form a Portfolio The investors tries to choose the optimal Portfolio taking
into consideration the risk - return characteristics of all possible Portfolios
As the economic and financial involvement keeps changing the risk - return
characteristics of individual securities as well as Portfolios also change. An Investor
invests his funds in a Portfolio expecting to get a good return with less risk to bear
Portfolio management comprises all the processes involved in the creation and
maintenance of an investment Portfolio. It deals specifically with security analysis,
Portfolio analysis, Portfolio selection, Portfolio revision and Portfolio evaluation

The objectives of investment Portfolio management can be classified into two categories.
1. BASIC OBJECTIVES
a) To maximize yield/return and b.) To minimize risk
2. SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:
a.) Regular return
b.) Stable income
c.) Appreciation of capital
d.) More liquidity
e.) Safety of investment
f.) Tax Benefit
NEED FOR PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
Portfolio Management is a process encompassing many activities of investments in assets
and securities. It is a dynamic and flexible concept and involves regular and systematic
analysis, judgment and action. The objective of this service is to help the unknown and
investors with the expertise of professionals in investment Portfolio management It
involves construction of Portfolio based upon the investor's objectives, constraints,
preferences for a risk and returns and tax liability. The Portfolio reviewed and adjusted
from time to time in tune with the market conditions The evolution of Portfolio is to be
done in term of targets set for risk and return The change in the Portfolio are to be
effected to meet the changing condition
Portfolio construction refers to the allocation of surplus funds in hand among the variety
of financial assets upon for investment Portfolio theory concerns itself with the principles
governing such allocation The modern view of investments is oriented more towards the
assembly of proper combinations of individual securities to form investment Portfolios A
combination of securities held together will give a beneficial result if they are grouped in
a manner to secure a high return after taking into consideration the risk element.
The modern theory is of the view that by diversification, risk can be reduced.
Diversification can make by the investor either by having a large number of shares of
companies in different reasons. In different industries are those producing different types
of product lines. Modern theories believe in the perspective of combination of securities
under constraints of risk and return.
ELEMENTS OF PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
Portfolio management is ongoing process involving the following basic tasks
1 Identification of investor’s objectives, constraints and preferences.
2. Strategies are to be developed and implemented in tune with investment
Policy formulated
3. Review and monitoring of the performance of the portfolio.
4 Finally the evolution of portfolio.
SEBI GUIDELINES TO THE PORTFOLIO MANAGERS
On7th"' January 1993, the Security Exchange Board of India issued regulations to the
Portfolio managers for the regulation of Portfolio management services by merchant
bankers. They are as follows
Portfolio management services shall be in the nature of investment
or consultancy management for an agreed fee at clients risk.
The Portfolio manager shall not guarantee return directly or
indirectly the fee should not be depended upon or it should not be
returned sharing basis
Various term of agreements, fees, disclosures of risk and
repayment should be mentioned
Client's funds should be kept separately in client wise account
which should be subject to audit?

scheduled commercial bank.
Purchase or sale of securities shall be made at prevailing market
price.
Portfolio managers with his Clint are fiduciary in nature. He shall
act both as an agent and trustee for the funds received.
4.3 PHASES OF PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
Each phase is an integral part of the whole process and the success of Portfolio
management depends upon the efficiency in carrying out each of the phases.
SECURITY ANALYSIS
The security available to an investor for investment is numerous and of various types the
shares of over seven thousand companies are listed in the stock exchange of the country.
Traditionally the securities were classified into ownership securities such as equity shares
and preference shares and creditor ship securities such as debentures and bonds. Security
analysis is the initial phase of the Portfolio management this consists of two alternative
approaches namely fundamental analysis and technical analysis
FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS
The primary motive of buying a share is to sell it subsequently at a higher rate An
investor would be interested to know the dividend to be paid on the share in the future as
also the future price of the share. These values can only be estimated and predicted with
certainty. These values are primarily determined by the performance of the company,
which in turn is influenced, by the performance of the industry.
An investor at the time of the investment has to evaluate a lot of information about the
past performance and the expected future performance of companies, industries and the
economy as a whole before taking the investment decision such evaluation or analysis is
called fundamental analysis.
Fundamental analysis insists that no one should purchase or sell a share on the basis of
tips and rumors. The fundamental approach calls upon the information about company
belongs and the economy this result in informed investing for the fundamentalist makes
use of EIC framework of analysis.
a) Company specific factors such as the age of its plant, the quality of management,
brand image of its labor management relations act, and these factors are likely to make a
company performance quite different from that of its competitors in the same industry
b) Industry wide factors such as demand supply gap in the industry, the emergence of
substitute products, change in government policy relating to industry etc And these
factors affect only those companies belonging to a specific industry.
c) Economy wide factors such as growth rate of the economy, inflation rate, and foreign
exchange rates etc, which affects all companies.
A. ECONOMY ANALYSIS
he performance of a company depends on the performance of the economy if the
economy is booming, income raises and the demand for the goods will increase, on the
other hand, if the economy is in recession, the performance of the companies will be
generally bad.
The following are the same of the key economic variable that an investor must monitor as
a part of his fundamental analysis
Growth rate of national income
Inflation
Interest rate
Governments revenue, expenditure and deficits
Exchange rate
Infrastructure
Monsoon
Economic and political stability
B. INDUSTRY ANALYSIS
Investors ultimately invest his money in the securities of one or more specific companies.
Each company can be characterized as belonging to an industry. The performance of
companies would therefore, be influenced by the fortunes of the industry to which it
belongs For this reason an analyst has to undertake an industry analysis so as to study the
fundamentals factors affecting the performance of different industries
4.4 INDUSTRY LIFE CYCLE
Marketing experts believes that each product has a life cycle. In the same way, an
industry is also said to have a life cycle this industry life cycle theory is generally
attributed to Julius Gowdinsky. According to the theory, the life of an industry can be
segregated into
1. Pioneering stage
2. The expansion stage
3. The stagnation stage
4. The decay stage
4.5 COMPANY ANALYSIS
Company analysis is the final stage of fundamental analysis the economy analysis
provides the investor a board outline of prospectus of growth in the economy. The
industry analysis helps the investor to select the industry in which investment would be
rewarding. Now he has to decide the company in which he should invest his money.
Company analysis provides the answer to this question.
Company analysis deals with the estimation of return and risk of individual shares. This
calls for information this information influence investment decisions Information
regarding companies can be broadly classified into two board groups, internal and
external
Internal information sources include annual reports to shareholder, public and private
statement of officers of the company, the company's financial statements, etc, external
sources of information are those generated independently these are prepared by
investment services and the financial press
The prosperity of a company would depend upon its profitability and financial health.
The financial statements published by a company periodically help us to assess the
profitability and financial health's of the company are the balance sheet and the profit and
loss account The first gives us the picture of the company's assets and liabilities while the
second gives us a picture of its earnings.
Some of the factors to be analyzed at the time of selecting a company for investment are:
Top management officials of that company
The company's past performance.
The rate of dividend declared by the company in the past
Growth opportunities of the company
Competitive opportunities of the company
Company's Turnover rate
Company's goodwill
Past annual reports, etc
4.6 TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
The analysts believe that share prices are determined by the demand and supply forces
operating in the market. These demand and supply forces in turn are influenced by a
number of factors these factors cannot be qualified. The combined impact of all these
factors is reflected in the share price moment. Technical analysis is the name given to
forecasting techniques that utilize historical share price date
The basic premise of technical analysis sis that price move in trends or waves which may
be upward or down ward. It is believed that due present trends are influenced by the past
trends and that due projection of future trends is possible by an analysis of past price
trends. The technical analysis is really a study of past or historical price and volume
movement so as to predict the future stock price behavior.
DOW THEORY
Whatever is generally being accepted today as technical analysis has roots in due dow
theory Charles Dow formulated a hypothesis that the stock markets does not move on a
random basis but it is influenced by three distinct cyclical trends that guide its direction.
According to dow Theory,. The market has three moments & these moments are
simultaneous in nature. These moments are the primary moments, secondary reactions
and minor moments
The primary moment is the long range cycle that carries the entire market up or down
This is due long term trend in the market The secondary reactions act as a restraining
force on due primary moment These are in due opposite direction to the primary moment
and last only for a short while these are also known as corrections The third moment in
the market is the minor moments which are the day to day inculcations in the market
These moments are not significant and have a very short duration.
According to Dow theory, the price moment in the market can be identified by means of
a line chart In this chart, the closing prices of shares or the closing values of the market
index may be plotted against the corresponding trading days.
4.7 BASIC PRINCIPLES OF TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
The market value of security is related to demand and supply factors operating in the
market.
There are both rational and irrational factors which surround the supply and demand
factors of a security.
Security prices behave in a manner that their moment in continuous in a particular
direction for same length of time
Trends in stock prices have been seen to changes when there is a shift in the demand
and supply factors.
The shifts in demand and supply can be detected through charts prepared specially
to show market action
Patterns which are projected by charts record price moments and these recorded
patterns are used by analysts to make forecasts about the moment of prices in future
Portfolio Analysis
A portfolio is a group of securities held together as investment. Investors invest their
funds in a portfolio of securities rather than in a single security because they are risk
averse. By constructing a portfolio, investors’ attempts to spread risk by not putting all
their eggs into one basket Portfolio phase of Portfolio management consists of
denitrifying the range of possible Portfolio that can be constituted from a given set of
securities and calculating their return and risk for further analysis.
PORTFOLIO SELECTION
Portfolio analysis provides the input for the nest phase in portfolio management, which is
Portfolio selection the proper goal of Portfolio construction is to get high returns at a
given level of risk. The inputs from Portfolio analysis can be used to identify the set of
efficient Portfolio. From this set of Portfolio the optimal Portfolio has to be selected for
investment.
PORTFOLIO REVISIONS
Having constructed the optimal Portfolio the investor has to constantly monitor the
Portfolio to ensure that it continues to he optimal As the economy and financial markets
are dynamic, the changes take place almost daily The investor now has to revise his
Portfolio The revision leads to purchase of new securities and sale of some of the existing
securities from the Portfolio.
Portfolio Evaluation
The objective of constructing a Portfolio and revising it periodically is to earn maximum
returns with minimum risk Portfolio evaluation is the process Which is concerned with
assessing the performance of a Portfolio over a selected period of time in terms of return
and risk Portfolio evaluation is useful in yet another way It provides a mechanism for
identifying weakens in the investment process and for improving these deficient areas
4.8 RISK
Every investment is characterized by return and risk A person making an investment
expects to get some return from the investment in the future It as future is uncertain, so is
the future expected return It is this uncertainty associated with the returns from an
investment that introduces risk into an investment
Risk distinguishes between the expected return and the realize return from an investment
The expected return is the uncertain future return that an investor expects to get from his
investment The realized return is the certain return that an investor has actually obtained
form his investments are the end of the holding period
The investor makes the investment decision based on the expected return from the
investment The actual return realized from the investment may not compare to the
expected return This possibility of variation of the actual return from the expected return
is termed risk.
TYPES OF RISK
MARKET RISK
Market risk arises due to ups and downs in the market this risk affects the share Market
prices of share move up or down consistently for some time period, a general rise in share
price is refereed to as a bullish trend, whereas a general fall in share prices is referred to
as a movement of share price indices such as a BSE Sensitive Index, BSF. National
index, NSE Index etc
INTEREST MARKET RISK
Interest rate risk is a type of risk that particularly affect debt securities like bonds,
debentures A bond or debenture normally has a fixed coupon rate of interest The issuing
company pays interest to the bondholder at this coup rate A bond is normally issued with
a coupon rate, which is equal to the interest rate prevailing in the market at the time of
issue The market interest rate may change but the coupon rate remains constant till the
maturity of the instrument
PURCHASING POWER RISK
This risk refers to the variation in investor return caused by inflation results in lowering
of the purchasing power of money this type or risk is more inflationary in fixed income
securities and less in variable return securities
BUSINESS RISK
Every company operates within a particular operating environment This operating
environment comprises both internal and external environment The impact of these
operation conditions is reflected in the operating costs of the company Business risk is
thus a function of the operating conditions faced by a company and is the variability in
operating income caused by the operating conditions of the company
FINANCIAL RISK
Financial risk is a function of financial leverage, which is the use of debt in the capital
structure The presence of debt in the capital structure creates fixed payments in the form
of interest This fixed interest payment creates more variability in the earnings per share
(EPS) available to equity share holders This variability in EPS due to the presence of debt
in the capital structure of a company is referred to as financial risk This risk is an
avoidable risk.
RETURN ON PORTFOLIO
Each security in a Portfolio contributes returns in the proportion of this investment in a
security Thus the Portfolio expected return is the weighted average of the expected return
from each of the securities, with weights representing the proportionate share of the
security in the total investment Why an investor does have so many securities in his
Portfolio9 If the security ABC gives the maximum return why not he invests in that
security all his funds and thus maximize the returns'1 The answer to this question lie in
the investors perception of risk attached to investments his objectives of income safety,
appreciation, liquidity and hedge against loss of value of money etc this pattern of
investment in different asset categories, security categories types of instruments etc ,
would all be described under the caption of diversification which aims at the reduction or
even elimination of non systematic or company related risk and achieve the specific
objectives of investors
PORTFOLIO RISK
return of the as Risk on a Portfolio is different from on individual securities The risk is
reflected in the variability of the returns form zero to infinity The expected return
depends on the probability of returns and their weighted contribution to the risk of the
Portfolio There are two measures of risk in this context, one is the absolute deviation and
the other is standard deviation Most investors invest in a Portfolio of assets as they do not
want to put all their eggs in one basket Hence, what really matters to them is not the risk
and return of the stocks in isolation but the risk and a whole
PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT & DIVERSIFICATION
A combinations of securities that have risk & return feature make up a Portfolio Portfolio
may or may not take on the aggregate directive scrip's on the individual particulars
Portfolio analysis takes the various components of risk and return for each industry
considers mixed effect of combined securities
Portfolio selection involves choosing the best Portfolio to suit the risk return preferences
of the Portfolio investor, management of Portfolio is a dynamic activity of evaluating and
revising the Portfolio in terms of its objectives It is widely accepted that individual scrip's
carry a certain degree of risk
Portfolio helps in spreading the risk over many securities This risk is reduced the basic
principle is that is a Portfolio holds several assets or securities, which may include cash
also if even one goes back the other, will provide protection from the loss The
diversification can be either vertical of Horizontal In vertical diversification a Portfolio
can have scrip's of different company's within the same industry In Horizontal
diversification one and have different scrip's chosen from different industries.
4.9 INVESTMENT DECISIONS
DEFINITIONS
According to F. Amiling investment may be defined as a purchase by an individual or
institutional investor of a financial or real asset that produces a return proportional to the
risk assumed over some future investment period According to D H Fischer and R J
Jordan investment is a commitment of funds made in the expectation of some positive
rate of return It the investment is properly undertaken the return will be commensurate
with the risk the investor assures.
CONCEPT OF INVESTMENT
Investment will generally be used in its financial sense and as such investment is the
allocation of monitory resources to assets that are expected to yield some gain or positive
return over a given period of time. Investment is a commitment of person’s funds to
derive future income in the form of interest, dividends, rent, premiums, pension benefits
are the appreciation of value of his principal capital.
Any investor would like to know the media or range of investments so that he can use his
discretion and safe in those investments, which will give him both security and stable
return The ultimate objective of the investor is to derive a variety of investments that
meet his preference for risk and expected return The investor will select the Portfolio that
will maximize his utility.
All investments is risky as the investor will put his money an efficient invest with proper
training can reduce the risk and maximize the returns He can avoid pitfalls and protect his
interest
Money and information are the basis and the first requirement of investment is the
availability of money or savings but money is not enough as investments are generally
made on the basis of information of the companies, instruments, industry and economy.
Both money and information flow do help making investment management
GUIDE LINES FOR EQUITY INVESTMENT
Equity shares are characterized by price fluctuations, which can produce substantial gains
or inflict severe losses given the volatility and dynamism of” the stock market, investor
required greater competence and skill along with a touch of good luck too - to invest in
equity share. Here are some general guidelines to play to equity game, irrespective of
whether you are aggressive or conservative
Adopt a suitable formula plan
Establish value anchors
Asses market psychology
Combine fundamental and technical analyze
Diversity sensibly
Periodical review and revise you Portfolio
QUALITIES FOR SUCCESSFUL INVESTING
Contrary thinking
Patience
Composure
Flexibility and
Openness
MARKET PORTFOLIO
It is very difficult for the company to manage the internal and the external risk The
internal risk is within the company which may be minimized, but external risk due to
market conditions, which cannot be minimized. To some extent the market risk may be
analyzed on the basis of the financial techniques namely:
CAPM (Capital Asset Pricing Model)
CML (Capital Market Line)
SML (Security Market Line)
4.10 CAPITAL ASSET PRICING MODEL (CAPM)
The market will have efficient and inefficient securities But the investor cannot identity
only efficient securities, he may invest in both efficient (where minimum return is
guaranteed) and inefficient securities (where minimum risk is not guaranteed) this
analysis can be done under CAPM
It was developed in the year I960 by William sharpe, John linter and Mission It was
developed on the basis of Markowitz Risk and return theorem Actually CAPM is an
extension f the Portfolio theory of Markowitz, The Portfolio theory is a description of
how rational investors should build efficient Portfolio's and select the optimal Portfolio.
CAPM is the one of the important model helping the company
As well as the investor, to know what the risk is involved in the market as well as the
overall return the market depends upon
Systematic Risk and unsystematic risk
Efficient and inefficient risk.
ASSUMPTIONS
I. The investors are well versed with the market and the risk
2 Investor will choose the Portfolio on the basis of expected return and the variance.
3 Minimum returns is guaranteed (R)
4. The investments are perfectly divisible.
5. The capital market is in equilibrium.
6. There is no imperfection in the market.
7 the investor should invest for a sine long period and all the investments are in uniform,
based on systematic and unsystematic risk.
Where:-
RI - risk free rate
RM =market return
ß =market risk
ß = (σj rjm) / σm
CAPITAL MARKET LINE (CML)
Hence all of them will ace the same efficient frontier every investor will seek As all
investors are assumed to have identical (homogenous) expectations to combine the risky
Portfolio with different levels of lending or borrowing according to his desired level of
risk. Because all investors hold the risky Portfolio, then it will include all risky securities
in the market. The Portfolio of all securities is referred to as the market Portfolio
This combination will lie along with the straight line protecting the investor under the
name called efficient frontier This line formed by the action of all investors mixing the
market Portfolio with the risk free assets is known as capital market line
An investor wants to invest his saving in efficient securities if the return is more than his
expectation. In such case he will borrow more than his saving, taking more risk and
invest in efficient market to earn maximum income But, if the return is not to this
expectation he will not borrow from outside but he will lead the money to the market to
earn extra income in the name called CML risk return.
SECURITY MARKET LINE (SML)
SML is one of the methods to know the return; based on the market risk It is related to
C'APM Since the market consists of efficient and inefficient securities, out of which the
Return of CAPM = Rf. + (ß (RM- RF))
investor will select any one company to invest. Analyzing the return of the company in
relation with market condition is called SML
The security market line provides the relationship between the expected return and Beta
of a security or Portfolio This relationship can be expressed in the form of the following
equation the relationship between the expected return and Beta of a security can be
determined graphically
CML & SML
It is necessary to contrast SML with SMI. Both postulate a linear (straight line)
relationship between risk and return. In CML the risk is defined as total Risk and is
measured by standard deviation, while in SMI the risk is defined as Systematic Risk and
is measured by Beta CML is valid only for efficient Portfolio while SMI is valid for all
Portfolios and all individual securities as well CML is the basis of the capital market
theory while SML is the basis of CAPM.
PORTFOLIO PERFORMANCE
Portfolio performance is the last step in the process of Portfolio management Portfolio
analysis, selection and revision are undertaken with the objective of maximizing returns
and minimizing risk Portfolio performance is the stage where we examine to what extent
the objective has been achieved Through Portfolio performance the investor tries to find
out how well the Portfolio has performed Portfolio of securities held by an investor is the
result of his investment decisions Portfolio performance is the really a study of the impact
of such decisions Without Portfolio performance. Portfolio management would be
incomplete Performance is an appraisal of evaluation Portfolio performance refers to the
evaluation of the performance of the Portfolio. Portfolio performance essentially
comprises of two functions, performance measurement and performance evaluation
Performance measurement is an accounting function which measures the return earned on
a Portfolio during the holding period or investment period. Performance evaluation, on
the other hand addresses such issues as whether the performance was superior or inferior,
whether the performance was due to skill or luck etc ,
Evaluating the investment is nothing but Portfolio performance the performance can be
analyzed on the basis of
Sharpe method
Treynor method
Jenson method
Fama method
SHARPE METHOD
The performance measure developed by William sharpe is referred to as the Sharpe
model or adjusted performance Risk Method In this model sharpe consider only
systematic risk (i.e. expected risk) and eliminate unsystematic risk (i.e. unexpected risk)
The formula for calculating the performance through this model
TREYNOR METHOD
The performance measure developed by Jack Treynor is referred to as Treynor Model
This method is also called as velocity Risk adjusted method or Return to variability ratio
method or character line risk adjusted method. Treynor followed the same system of
sharpe, hut he considered both systematic and unsystematic risk In this model he
considered the market risk (i.e.) but not the Portfolio risk (i.e.).
Sharpe uses the total risk as measured by standard deviation, while treynor employs the
systematic risk as measured by the beta coefficient in a fully diversified Portfolio all
unsystematic risk would be diversified away and the relevant measure of risk would be
the Beta coefficient. For such a Portfolio Treynor model would be the appropriate
measure of performance evaluation For a Portfolio that is not so well diversified, the
Sharpe model using the total risk would be the appropriate performance measure
JENSON MODEL
Another type of risk adjusted performance measure has been developed by Michael
Jenson and is deferred to as the Jenson Measure or Model This model attempts to
measure the differential between the actual return earned on a Portfolio and the return
expected from the Portfolio given its level of risk Same like Treynor, Jenson considered
both Systematic and unsystematic risk. He considered the market return based on CAPM
technique
The CAPM model is used to calculate the expected return on Portfolio It indicates the
return that a Portfolio should earn for its given level of risk The difference between the
return actually earned on a Portfolio and the return expected from the Portfolio is a
measure of the excess return or differential return that has been earned over the above
what is mandated for its level of systematic risk The differential return gives as indication
of the Portfolio managers predictive ability or managerial skills.
FAMA METHOD
The performance measure discussed so far assess the overall performance of a Portfolio
tugena Fama has provided an analytical framework that allows a detail break down of
Portfolio performance into the source or components of performance. According to
Fame, the performance is analyzed, with risk and without risk along with selectivity and
diversification
When the investor is not satisfied with existing performance, he may switch over to a
new company within the industry called sensitivity and if he is not interested in the same
industry he may select different industries called diversification.
FAMA took both Systematic and Unsystematic Risk When there is no risk
The correlation is defined as
Where and are the standard deviations of and .
Correlation is a statistical technique which can show whether and how strongly pairs of
variables are related. For example, height and weight are related - taller people tend to be
heavier than shorter people. The relationship isn't perfect. People of the same height vary
in weight, and you can easily think of two people you know where the shorter one is
heavier than the taller one. Nonetheless, the average weight of people 5'5'' is less than the
average weight of people 5'6'', and their average weight is less than that of people 5'7'',
etc. Correlation can tell you just how much of the variation in peoples' weights is related
to their heights.
CORRELATION COEFFICIENT
The correlation is one of the most common and most useful statistics. A correlation is a
single number that describes the degree of relationship between two variables.
The formula for the correlation is:
CO-EFFICIENT OF DETERMINATION:
It expresses the proportion of the total variation that has been explained i.e., the
percentage variation in the dependent variable that is accounted for by the independent
variable.
If we square the correlation of coefficient, we obtain a number called the coefficient of
determination.Covariance and correlation are related parameters that indicate the extent
to which two random variables co-vary. Suppose there are two technology stocks. If they
are affected by the same industry trends, their prices will tend to rise or fall together.
They co-vary. Covariance and correlation measure such a tendency.
COVERIANCE
A statistical measure of correlation of the fluctuations is of two different quantities. In
finance, covariance is applied to the annual rates of return of different investments, to
measure the correlation of their year-to-year fluctuations in performance.
The definition is
Cov (r1, r2) = 1/n * (r1 i - r1 ave) * (r2 i - r2 ave)
Where the terms r1 i and r2 i are actual values of the annual rates of return of two
investments, taken over several years, n is the total number of values of r1 i and r2 i used,
and r1 ave and r2 ave are the average values of r1 i and r2 i.
VARIANCE
The variance is one of several indices of variability that statisticians use to characterize
the dispersion among the measures in a given data set. To calculate the variance of a
given data set, it is necessary to first calculate the mean of the scores, then measure the
amount that each score deviates from the mean and then square that deviation.
Numerically, the variance equals the average of the several squared deviations from the
mean
STANDARD DEVIATION
The standard deviation is one of several indices of variability that statisticians use to
characterize the dispersion among the measures in a given data set.
To calculate the standard deviation of a data set it is first necessary to calculate that data
set’s variance. Numerically, the standard deviation is the square root of the variance.
Unlike the variance, which is a somewhat abstract measure of variability, the standard
deviation can be readily conceptualized as a distance along the scale of measurement.
MEAN
The mean is the average of the scores in the data set. Numerically, it equals the sum of
the scores divided by the number of scores. It is of interest that the mean is the one value
which, if substituted for every score in a data set,, would yield the same sum as the
original scores, and hence it would yield the same mean.
CALCULATION OF PORTFOLIO WEIGHTS
The following formula is used for calculating Minimum risk portfolio
(σa)2 - Rab (σa) (σb)
Xa = (σa)2 + (σb)2 - 2 * Rab * (σa) * (σb)
Where Xa=propotion of security ‘a’
Xb=proportion of security ‘b’
(σa) =standard deviation of security ‘a’
(σb)=standard deviation of security ‘b’
Rab=correlation coefficient between a & b.
Xb= 1- Xa
PORTFOLIO RETURNS
Formula for two securities portfolio
Rp=WaRa+WbRb
Formula for three securities portfolio
Where Wa=weight of security a
Wb= weight of security b
Wc=weight of security c
Ra=return on security a
Rb=return on security b
Rc=return on security c.
Rp=return on portfolio.
CALCULATION OF PORTFOLIO RISK
The following formula is used to calculate portfolio risk in case of two securities.
(σp) = √ (( Xa)2 (σa)2 + (Xb)2 (σb)2 + 2 (Xa) (Xb) (σa)(σb) Rab
Where:-
(σp) = portfolio risk
Xa = proportion of investment in security a
Xb = proportion of investment in security b
(σa) = standard deviation of security a
(σb) = standard deviation of security b
Rab = correlation coefficient between security a & b.
The following formula is used to calculate portfolio risk in case of three securities.
Rp=WaRa+WbRb+WcRc
(σp) = √((Xa)2 (σa)2+(Xb)2(σb)2+(Xc)2(σc)2+2 (Xa) (Xb) (σa)(σb) Rab+
2(Xa) (Xc) (σa)(σc) Rac+2 (Xc) (Xb) (σc)(σb) Rbc
Where: -
Xa ,Xb, Xc are the weights of the securities
(σa),(σb),(σc) are the standard deviations of the securities
Rab is the correlation coefficient between a & b.
Rbc is the correlation coefficient between b & c.
Rca is the correlation coefficient between c & a.

BETA:
The BETA coefficient is a measure of systematic risk. BETA is the measure of
volatility/responsiveness of the individual security with respect to the changes in the
market security.
THREE CASE OF BETA:
1. If BETA=1, the securities are called normal securities i.e. a given change in
market say 10% is followed by an incidental change in the security.
2. If BETA>1, the securities are called Aggressive securities i.e a given change in
market is followed by a more than proportionate change in the security.
Ex: If the change in the market is 10% and BETA of the security is say 1.5 there will
be 15% change in the individual securities return.
3. If BETA<1, the securities are called Defensive securities i.e. a given change in
market is followed by a less than proportionate change in the individual security.
Ex: if the change in the market is 10% and Beta of security is 0.5 there will be 5%
change in the individual securities return.

DEFINITION OF ALPHA
ALPHA
Alpha is not only used to measure the extra return rewarded to you for taking on risk
posed by factors other than market volatility, it also measures how much if any of this
extra risk helped the fund outperform its corresponding benchmark.
Using Beta, alpha’s computation compares the fund’s performance to that of the
benchmark’s risk adjusted returns and establishes if the fund’s returns outperformed the
markets given the same amount of risk.
For example, if a fund has an alpha of 1, it means that the fund outperformed the
benchmark by 1%. Negative alphas are bad in that they indicate that the fund
underperformed for the amount of extra, fund-specific risk the fund’s investors.
