Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)
The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) helps investors calculate the expected return on investment while taking into account its risk.
The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) helps investors calculate the expected return on investment while taking into account its risk. The CAPM takes into account the risk free return, risk premium, and the beta. The risk premium is the return you expect to earn on an investment because of the risk which you take on as an investor.
CAPM says that the money you can expect to make from an investment is equal to the safe, risk-free return plus the extra risk premium (based on how risky the investment is). So, riskier investments should give you higher returns than safer investments to make up for the risk you’re taking.
Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is a fundamental financial concept used in investment analysis, portfolio management, and asset valuation.
