The previous reasoning is no longer valid and neither are its conclusions. We should state that alongside the risk factors that we will be mentioning, the explanatory elements of the market risk can also include: • The imperfect nature of valuation models. • The imperfect knowledge of the rules and limitations particular to the institution. • The impossibility of anticipating changes to legal regulations. We should also point out that alongside this market risk, the investor will be confronted with other types of risk that correspond to the occurrence of exceptional events such as wars, oil crises etc.
The random variables mentioned in the previous paragraph then turn into stochastic processes and the associated theories become much more complex. For this reason, the following chapters (3, 4 and 5) will feature both valuation models (from the static viewpoint) and development models (from the dynamic viewpoint). In addition, for the valuation of options only, the development models for the underlying asset are essential because of the intrinsic link between this product and the time variable.
1391 An argument that no longer makes sense with the advent of the computer age. See, for example, the portfolio return shown below. 2 Return on a portfolio Let us consider a portfolio consisting of a number N of equities, and note nj , Cj t and Rj t , respectively the number of equities (j ), the price for those equities at the end of period t and the dividend paid on the equity during that period. The total value Vt of the portfolio at the moment t, and the total value Dt of the dividends paid during period t, are therefore given by: N Vt = nj Cj t j =1 N Dt = nj Dj t j =1 The return of the portfolio will therefore be given by: RP ,t = Vt − Vt−1 + Dt Vt−1 N N nj Cj t − = j =1 N nj Cj,t−1 + j =1 nj Dj t j =1 N nk Ck,t−1 k=1 N nj (Cj t − Cj,t−1 + Dj t ) = j =1 N nk Ck,t−1 k=1 N nj Cj,t−1 = N j =1 Rj t nk Ck,t−1 k=1 The quantity Xj = nj Cj,t−1 N k=1 nk Ck,t−1 represents the portion of the equity (j ) invested in the portfolio at the moment t − 1, expressed in terms of equity market capitalisation, and one Equities thus arrives at form: 39 Xj = 1.
