  • Foster, George

Abstract

The capital asset pricing model specifies that relative risk is a sufficient descriptor of security risk. This result holds under both the Sharpe-Lintner version,and the more general Black version of the model,where = expected rate of return on asset i,Rf = riskless rate of interest, = expected return on the market portfolio, = expected return on any “zero-beta” asset or portfolio of such assests, and = relative risk of asset i in the market portfolio of assests.
