Assume we can assign probabilities to the possible returns — given an assumed set of circumstances, the expected return is given by: 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 Expected Return Calculation Distribution of returns for security Percentage Return, Ri Probability, Pi 9 10 11 12 13 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 Risk Risk is present whenever investors are not certain about the outcome an investment will produce. Risk is measured in terms of how much a particular return deviates from an expected return, measured by variance: We often use standard deviation to measure risk. This is simply the square root of the variance. 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 Risk Calculation Continuing with the previous example, risk is given by: 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 Risk Attitudes Risk-neutral investor: One whose utility is unaffected by risk and hence, when choosing an investment, focuses only on expected return. Risk-averse investor: One who demands compensation in the form of higher expected returns in order to be induced into taking on more risk. .
