7. Risk
Risk is defined as variability in return or volatility in
return.
Risk is the chance of the actual return being less than
the expected return. It means any deviation from the
expected return.
8. Types of Risk
1. Systematic Risk:
a. Market Risk
b. Interest rate risk
c. Purchasing power risk
2. Unsystematic Risk:
a. Business Risk
b. Financial Risk
9. Systematic Risk
Systematic Risk affects the entire market. The entire
market is moving in a direction either downwards or
upwards.
Systematic risk is unavoidable and beyond the control
of the corporation or investor.
Example: Economic Conditions, Political Situations,
Sociological Changes.
10. Market Risk
Market Risk: It is the portion of the variability of
return that is caused by the alternating forces of the
bull and bear phases.
Bull Market- The index moves from a low level to its
peak. It is due to the rising investor confidence and
expectations of further capital gains.
BearMarket- Index declines haltingly from the peak to
a market low point for a significant period.
11. Tangible Events – Real events such as earthquake, war,
political uncertainty and fall in the value of currency.
Intangible Events – They are related to market
psychology which are affected by real events.
Reactions to real events become over reactions and
push the market either upward or downward.
12. Interest Rate Risk
It is the variation in the return caused by fluctuations in the
market interest rate.
It affects:
1. Bond Return:
- When interest rate rise, new issues will hit the market
with higher interest rate resulting in less demand for old
bonds.
- When interest rate declines, new bonds will yield low
returns making the old bonds worth more.
- Demand for bond goes up when the stock market is
depressed and the demand for government bond goes up
when the govt issues attractive bonds than the private
sector.
2. Cost of Borrowing:
13. Purchasing Power Risk
It is the probable loss in the purchasing power of the
returns to be received. Inflation is the reason for
purchasing power risk.
Inflation- Persistent increase in price.
- Demand Pull Inflation
- Cost Push Inflation
- Real Rate of Return
14. Real Rate of Return = {(1 + r)/(1+IR) } – 1
Where IR = Inflation Rate r = return
Investor gets a return of 12% on his investment and the
inflation rate is 6.8%
Real Rate of Return ={( 1+ 0.12)/(1+0.068)}-1
= {1.12/1.068}-1
RR = 1.0486-1=0.0486=4.86%
15. Unsystematic Risk
It is unique and peculiar to a firm or an industry. It stems
from financial leverage, managerial inefficiency,
technological change in the production process ,
availability of raw material, change in consumer
preferences and labour problems.
1. Business risk refers to the difference between
revenue and EBIT
2. Financial risk refers to the difference between EBIT
and EBT. Financial risk is associated with capital
structure of the company.
16. Business Risk
Internal Business Risk
Fluctuations in sales
Research and Development
Personnel Management
Fixed Cost
Single Product
External Business
Risk
Social and Regulatory Factors
Political Factors
Business Cycles
17. Minimizing Risk Exposure
Protection against market risk – studying the past
price behaviour of the stock.
Protection against Interest rate risk- Holding the
investment to maturity, Buying TB and bonds of short
maturity, investing in bonds with different maturity
dates.
Protection against inflation- investment in short
term securities and diversification in investment.
Protection against Business and Financial Risk-
Analyzing the strengths , weakness, profitability and
capital structure of the company.
18. Risk Measurement
Ex-post risk- Variance from mean value measures the
ex-post risk using historical data.
Ex-ante risk- Variance is calculated with the help of
probable returns.
Characteristic Regression Line (CRL): It is a simple
linear regression model estimated for a particular
stock against the market index return to measure it’s
diversifiable and undiversifiable risks.
19. CRL formula
Ri = αi + βi Rm + ei
where
Ri = Return of the ith stock, αi = Intercept, βi = Slope of the
ith stock, Rm = Return of the market index, ei =The error
term.
β = n Σ XY – (ΣX)(ΣY)
--------------------- , α = Ỳ - βX
n Σ X2 - (ΣX)2
20. Beta and its intrepretation
Beta : It is the slope of the CRL. It describes the
relationship between stock return and the index
return.
Beta = 1=> 1% change in the market index return
causes exactly 1 % change in the stock return.
Beta = 0.5 => The stock is less volatile compared to the
market.
Beta = 2 => The stock return is more volatile.
Negative Beta indicates that the stock moves in the
opposite direction to the market return.
