CML Slope • p* - portfolio in the tangency point of the CML and the portfolio frontier. • . f – slope CML , f is the maximized slope of a line that originates in rf point and touches the portfolio frontier. 11/26/2020 Fin 355 -Efficient Set w/ Riskless Borrowing and Lending| Dr. Menahem Rosenberg 2
Slope of CML • CML Slope • For optimal set: maximize the slope subject to the asset allocation constraint: wi - asset i weight – with N assets 11/26/2020 Fin 355 -Efficient Set w/ Riskless Borrowing and Lending| Dr. Menahem Rosenberg 3
The Case of Two Assets • Incorporating the constraint • Using the above the CML slope 11/26/2020 Fin 355 -Efficient Set w/ Riskless Borrowing and Lending| Dr. Menahem Rosenberg 4
Maximize the Slope • To maximized the slope take derivative with respect to the two weights and set to zero • Multiply both sides by (. )1/2 substitute for rp* and s 2 p* 11/26/2020 Fin 355 -Efficient Set w/ Riskless Borrowing and Lending| Dr. Menahem Rosenberg 5
Two Assets Efficient Set • Simplify (4) • Define constant • 11/26/2020 Fin 355 -Efficient Set w/ Riskless Borrowing and Lending| Dr. Menahem Rosenberg 6
Two assets Efficient Set • Define this definition allows • Rewrite (5) and rearrange 11/26/2020 Fin 355 -Efficient Set w/ Riskless Borrowing and Lending| Dr. Menahem Rosenberg 7
Two Assets Efficient Set • Rewrite in a Matrix form: • Solve • Use (6) to get the weights. 11/26/2020 Fin 355 -Efficient Set w/ Riskless Borrowing and Lending| Dr. Menahem Rosenberg 8
