6. The CAPM.
Agenda
• The Nature of Risk
• The Capital Asset Pricing Model
• How to Get a Discount Rate Using the CAPM
2
The Nature of Risk
• Is variance (or standard deviation) the relevant measure of risk to you? Why or why not?
• Total fluctuation is not what matters but how the fluctuation is related to the fluctuation in our wealth.
• What should be the relevant measure?
Review of Portfolio Theory
• When you start to combine stocks into a portfolio, you start to reduce the overall risk to your investment. This phenomenon is called diversification.
• What makes it possible & what are the limits of diversification?
• Diversification cannot eliminate total risk:
4
Even More Efficient Portfolios
• Introducing a risk free asset. Lend/borrow money in the market at the risk free rate.
5
Even More Efficient Portfolios
• You can create an even better set of efficient portfolios: improving return without increasing risk or decreasing risk without diminishing return.
6
Capital Market Line
• CML is a linear combination of the market portfolio and the risk-free rate.

Capital Market Line
• What if an asset or a portfolio is not on the CML?

Adding a Risk-Free Asset (Many Risky)

Many Risky Assets & 1 Risk-Free Asset
• The line from the risk-free rate that is tangent to the efficient frontier is sometimes called the capital allocation line.
• The unique portfolio of risky assets that is also on this line is called the tangency portfolio.
• It is the best efficient portfolio as it offers the highest ratio of risk premium to standard deviation (the Sharpe Ratio)
• Sharpe ratio = Risk premium / SD = (rp-rf)/σp
10
Sharpe-Ratio
• A risk-free asset has zero variance and zero covariance with any other asset.
• Thus, a portfolio with one risky asset and one risk-free asset has an expected return of:
and a portfolio standard deviation of:
• The risk-return tradeoff is:
• The slope is called the Sharpe-Ratio.
11
The CAPM
• Assumptions– Financial Markets are efficient with no frictions.– Investors are risk averse.– Investors’ beliefs about correlations, returns, and risk are
identical.
• The results:– All investors build their portfolios using the same risky asset:
The Value Weighted Market Portfolio– The Value Weighted Market Portfolio is efficient– The expected return on any security is determined by its beta.
The CAPM
• Excess return on an asset:
• Risk measure of the asset:
• Excess return per unit of risk:
• This should be the same for all:
• The Security Market Line:– relationship between risk and expected return for individual assets.

The CAPM
• In equilibrium, any two assets with the same marginal contribution to the risk of the market portfolio must have the same expected return.
• The relationship is of the specific functional form:
• In the CAPM world, all efficient portfolios are combinations of the market portfolio and the risk free asset
• The market portfolio is the tangency portfolio

Example 1.
• Consider a levered portfolio that consists of $1,200 invested in the market portfolio, with $200 of that $1,200 borrowed at the riskless rate of 5%. If the expected return on the market is 12%, what is the expected return on your portfolio?
• Recall:
• Return:
Example 2
• Aoife Kavanagh has invested 60% of her money in stock A with a beta of 1.5. The rest is in stock B with a beta of 2.1. The risk free rate is 5% and the expected market return is 12%.
• Based on the CAPM, what is the expected return of each stock? Risk premium is 7%.
• What is the beta of her portfolio?
• Based on the CAPM and given her portfolio beta, what is the expected return on her portfolio?
Example 3
• A stock is expected to pay no dividends for the first three years, i.e., D1 = $0, D2 = $0, and D3 = $0. The dividend for Year 4 is expected to be $5.00 (i.e., D4 = $5.00), and it is anticipated that the dividend will grow at a constant rate of 8% a year thereafter. The risk-free rate is 4%, the market risk premium is 6%, and the stock's beta is 1.5. Assuming the stock is fairly priced, what is the current price of the stock?
Let’s Take a Step Back
• The total risk of a stock can be measured by its variance, or standard deviation.
• By combining stocks into a portfolio, we can come up with better risk/return combinations through diversification. Some of the risk of each stock in a portfolio is diversified away.
• This is a critical idea. We do not care about all the risk, but only about systematic, undiversifiable risk!
• => How do we measure the common source of risk?
19
Beta: Intuition
• Conceptually, the relative risk of an asset in the portfolio is:
βi=cov(Ri,Rp)/σ2(Rp)
• The beta of the stock is a measure of its relative risk in the market. For a given stock market index, beta measures the asset’s relative risk contribution to that index.
• The beta of the market is 1. Beta measures a stock’s relative sensitivity to market movements. β ><1?
• Important in determining discount rates:

1. Total risk = diversifiable risk + market risk2. Market risk is measured by beta, the sensitivity to market changes.
What is the Market?
• What is a market return?
– The return on the market portfolio of all assets in the economy. In practice, a broad stock market index, such as the S&P 500 Composite, is used to represent the market.
• Why use the market return?
– It reflects the movement of the broader economy and we care about broad economic risks, not the individual risk of any firm
22
Market Risk
• How do we get a measure for market risk?
– First, compute the stock’s excess return over the risk free rate and then regress that on the market return over the risk free rate!
• Let’s see how this works. The following page has a brief introduction to the idea behind regression!

• A regression is simply an estimation of a linear relationship between 2 or more variables. Let’s review it by using a relevant example. Find the realized RISK PREMIUM for both IBM and the S&P 500.
• Note: Risk Premium = Return – Risk Free Rate

Again: Beta - Intuition
• The relative risk of an asset in the portfolio is:
β=cov(Ri,Rm)/σ2m
• The beta of the stock is a measure of its relative risk in the market. For a given stock market index, beta measures the asset’s relative risk contribution to that index.
• Beta measures a stock’s relative sensitivity to market movements.
• β >1 => above average risk
• β <1 => below average risk
• Will be important in determining discount rates.
27
Key Takeaways
• Use variance to measure the total risk.
• BUT diversifiable risk doesn’t matter because when you hold a portfolio, it doesn’t exist any more!
• Use beta to figure out its systematic (or non-diversifiable) risk. This is the risk that we will use to produce the discount rate (or expected/required return).
• Key ideas: risk-return tradeoff; what is an efficient portfolio; how diversification works. Beta.
For risky cash flows: r = risk-free + risk premium. Risk premium will be a function of beta. Estimate it.

Application of CAPM
• Using the SML equation, we can estimate the expected rate of return on equity.
• Step 1. Risk-free rate, Rf.– Use the current yield on one-year T-bills.
• Step 2. Excess return of market, E(RM)-Rf.– Use the historical data
• Step 3. Beta of stock j, βj.– Use the regression method or Beta books (e.g. Merrill Lynch)
29
Alternatives to CAPM: the APT
• Arbitrage Pricing Theory was pioneered by Steve Ross at MIT as an Arbitrage Pricing Theory was pioneered by Steve Ross at MIT as an alternative to CAPMalternative to CAPM
• Does not ask which portfolios are efficient. Instead, assumes that each stock’s return depends in part on macro factors and in part on idiosyncratic events unique to each firm.
• Imposes the following structure on expected return / risk premium
• E(Risk Premium) = r - rf
= βf1(rfactor1 - rf) + βf2(rf2 - rf) + …
• E(Return) = a + bf1(rfactor1) + bf2(rf2) + …
In the matter of APT vs. CAPM
• Like in the CAPM, in APT expected return depends on market-wide factors and is unaffected by unique risk.
• If the expected risk premium on each of the portfolios is proportional to the portfolio’s market beta, then the APT and CAPM will give the same answer. Otherwise, will not.
• APT: need not measure the market portfolio. Can test on small datasets. BUT
• APT does not tell us what the factors are!

CAPM: The Three Factor Model
• Take the regular CAPM and add to the market factor on the right hand side.
• Work by Gene Fama & Ken French: historically, small firms and high BTM (value firms) have provided above-average returns.
• Pick up these additional risk factors.
• Include these 2 factors on the RHS of the CAPM.
• E(R) = rf+bmkt(rm-rf)+bsize(rsmall-rlrg)+bmtb(rhibtm-rlobtm)
33
CAPM: The Three Factor Model
• How to apply the Fama-French 3 factor CAPM?
1. Identify the factors. Market, Size, BTM
2. Estimate the risk premium for each using historical data. ~7% market; ~3.7% size, ~5.2% BTM (’26-’06)
3. Estimate the betas for each stock as we have done with the regular CAPM (slope coefficient).
34
Applying the Three Factor CAPM
• Same as we did with the CAPM
• Mastercard’s market beta is 0.92. It also has a size beta of -0.17 and the BTM beta of 0.13.
• What is its expected return if the T-bill rate is 3.5%?
– E(R) = Rf+βmkt (Rm-Rf)+βsize(Rsm-Rlrg)+ βbtm (Rhi-Rlo) =
= 3.5% + 0.92*7%-0.17*3.7%+0.13*5.2%
= 9.99%
35
Takeaways
• Intuition about risk and portfolios.
• What do you need to make the most efficient portfolios with the CAPM? How would you do it?
• You only need the tangency portfolio (which is the market portfolio) plus a risk free asset to create any efficient portfolio.
• CAPM & the enhanced 3 factor CAPM model.
• Determine expected return (or discount rate) of assets if based on the market risk premium and the risk free rate.
• => Discount the cash flows.
Think about it
• Draw the Security Market Line (SML) and plot asset C such that it has less risk than the market but plots above the SML, and asset D such that it has more risk than the market and plots below the SML. (Be sure to indicate where the market portfolio is on your graph, and label axes.)
• Which of the stocks C or D is overpriced? Explain why you reached this conclusion.
• Explain why such pricing cannot persist in a market that is in equilibrium.
