Suppose that an FI holds two loans with the following characteristics: Annual Spread Between Loan Rate and FI's Cost of Funds: 4.5% 2.25% Loss to FI Given Default: 15% 10% Expected Default Frequency: 2.0% 0.5% Annual Fees: 1.75% 0.85% Loan: 0.65 0.35 Calculate the return and risk on the two-asset portfolio using KMV Portfolio Manager. Assume the correlation coefficient between the two loans is +0.25.

Step 1
Expected Return = Annual Spread + Annual Fees - (Loss to FI Given Default * Expected Default Frequency) Loan 1: Expected Return = 4.5% + 1.75% - (15% * 2.0%) Expected Return = 6.25% - 0.3% Expected Return = 5.95% Loan 2: Expected Return = 2.25% + 0.85% - (10% * Show more…

In this exercise, we examine the effect of combining investments with positively correlated risks, negatively correlated risks, and uncorrelated risks. A firm is considering a portfolio of assets. The portfolio is comprised of two assets, which we will call "A" and "B." Let X denote the annual rate of return from asset A in the following year, and let Y denote the annual rate of return from asset B in the following year. Suppose that E(X) = 0.15 and E(Y) = 0.20, SD(X) = 0.05 and SD(Y) = 0.06, and CORR(X, Y) = 0.30. (a) What is the expected return of investing 50% of the portfolio in asset A and 50% of the portfolio in asset B? What is the standard deviation of this return? (b) Replace CORR(X, Y) = 0.30 by CORR(X, Y) = 0.60 and answer the questions in part (a). Do the same for CORR(X, Y) = -0.60, -0.30, and 0.0.

Portfolio is composed of two stocks. Given the following parameters associated with the returns of the two stocks: Stock Proportion of Portfolio Mean Standard Deviation Stock 1 0.30 0.02 0.15 Stock 2 0.70 0.02 0.15 Determine the mean and standard deviation of the return on the portfolio when the coefficient of correlation is equal to 0.5, 0.25, and 0. Describe what happens to the expected value and standard deviation of the portfolio returns when the coefficient of correlation decreases.

A portfolio that combines the risk-free asset and the market portfolio has an expected return of 9.3% and a standard deviation of 20%. The risk free rate is 2.5% and the expected return on the market portfolios 11%. Assume the capital asset pricing model holds. a. what range captures 95.4% of the actual market portfolio returns? b. What rate of return would a security be expected to earn if it had 0.45 correlation with the market portfolio and a standard deviation of returns of 75%?
