Existence of equilibrium in CAPM

This paper identifies several sets of sufficient conditions for equilibrium to exist. The nature of the central conditions is to impose bounds on the investors' degree of risk aversion, as measured by the marginal rate of substitution between mean and standard deviation of return. These bounds do not need to hold globally but only in a relevant range of portfolios or combinations of mean and standard deviation| Item type | Current location | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds |
