  3. RISK AND RETURN CONCEPT

  4. All Investments are risky The degree of risk varies Risk is defined as “deviations from the expected outcome” Risk is measured through standard deviation or Beta analysis. Risk arises out of variability. The most useful method of calculating the variability is the standard deviation. Risk can be diversified. Concept of Risk

  5. Risk • Typically, risk is defined as short-term price volatility or variability. • But on a long-term basis, you can think of risk as the possibility that your accumulated real capital will be insufficient to meet your financial goals. • And if you want to reach your financial goals, you must start with an honest appraisal of your own personal comfort zone with regard to risk.

  6. Individual tolerance for risk varies, creating a distinct "investment personality " for each investor. • If an asset value jumps up and down a lot, it is deemed to be riskier than an asset value that stays put or climbs slowly - even if the asset that jumps around a lot tends to outperform the slower moving assets over time. • Some investors can accept short-term volatility with equanimity, others with near panic.

  7. Systematic risk Market risk Interest rate risk Purchasing power risk Unsystematic risks Business risk Financial risk Types of Risk

  8. Systematic risk • Uncontrollable in nature • affects all investments in general • Can be minimized through diversified investments

  9. Systematic risk • Arises out of external and uncontrollable factors such as economic, sociological, political and legal factors. • Market risk • Interest rate risk • Purchasing power risk

  10. Types of Risk • Market Risk. Also known as systematic risk. Referred as stock variability due to changes in investors attitude and expectations. At times the prices or yields of all the securities in a particular market rise or fall due to broad outside influences. Investors reaction towards tangible and intangible events is the chief cause for Market risk. For e.g. investors perception towards Mergers and acquisitions, dividends declaration, Bulk buying and selling by FII, Institutional investors, MFs. rumors, and other economic issues like government policy etc.,

  14. Currency Fluctuations. As the dollar rises in value, the value of overseas investments will decline, and vice versa. For Eg: the present IT stock prices are affected by the rupee appreciation

  15. Political Turmoil. At home and abroad, events in the political arena can encourage or discourage those who want to invest. This is also a consideration when investing outside of the United States.

  16. Unsystematic risk • Arises due to the uncertainty surrounding a particular firm or industry. • Factors like labor strike,change in management, change in the production, products etc can cause for these risk • Such risk can be classified as • Business risk • Financial risk
