Normality and Risk Measures
 What if excess returns are not normally
distributed?



Standard deviation is no longer a complete measure
of risk
Sharpe ratio is not a complete measure of portfolio
performance
Need to consider skew and kurtosis

Value at Risk (VaR)
 A measure of loss most frequently associated with
extreme negative returns
 VaR is the quantile of a distribution below which
lies q % of the possible values of that distribution

The 5% VaR , commonly estimated in practice, is
the return at the 5th percentile when returns are
sorted from high to low.
Risk, Return and Risk Aversion
21
Expected Shortfall (ES)
 Also called conditional tail expectation (CTE)
 More conservative measure of downside risk
than VaR


VaR takes the highest return from the worst cases
ES takes an average return of the worst cases

22
Lower Partial Standard Deviation (LPSD)
and the Sortino Ratio
 Issues:


Need to consider negative deviations separately
Need to consider deviations of returns from the
risk-free rate.
 LPSD: similar to usual standard deviation, but
uses only negative deviations from rf
 Sortino Ratio replaces Sharpe Ratio

23
Historic Returns on Risky
Portfolios
 Returns appear normally distributed
 Returns are lower over the most recent half of the
period (1986-2009)
 SD for small stocks became smaller; SD for long-
term bonds got bigger

Historic Returns on Risky
Portfolios
 Better diversified portfolios have higher Sharpe

 Negative skew

Utility Function
Utility Function: U = E ( r ) – 1/2 A σ2
Where U = utility
E ( r ) = expected return on the asset or portfolio
A = coefficient of risk aversion
σ2 = variance of returns

Allocating Capital: Risky & Risk Free Assets
 It’s possible to split investment funds between
safe and risky assets.
 Risk free asset: proxy; T-bills
 Risky asset: stock (or a portfolio)

Example Using Chapter 6.4
Numbers
The total market value of an initial portfolio is $300,000, of
which $90,000 is invested in the Ready Asset money
market fund, a risk-free asset. The remaining $210,000 is
invested in risky securities – $113,400 in equity and
$96,600 in long-term bonds. Find the distribution of this
portfolio.

Capital Allocation Line with
Leverage
Borrow at the Risk-Free Rate and invest in stock.
Using 50% Leverage,
rc = (-.5) (.07) + (1.5) (.15) = .19
c = (1.5) (.22) = .33

Optimal Portfolio
 Maximize the mean-variance utility function


U=E(R)-1/2Aσ2
Based on the expressions for expected return and σ,
we have the expression for optimal allocation y*:
