Abstract :
The previous column presented the basic ideas of modern portfolio theory (MPT). This column covers additional aspects of the theory and presents a result known as the capital asset pricing model (CAPM). The underlying theory is not always easy to grasp on a first encounter but is presented here because it plays a central role in investment theory and practice
