International Equity Markets and Portfolio Diversification l l l No well-accepted international version of the capital asset pricing model. The benefits of diversification globally are empirical issues. The empirical case for international diversification has two components. Establish the riskiness of foreign investment, and the extent to which combining a foreign with a domestic portfolio reduces risk. u Even if it reduces risk, does foreign investment also reduce expected return? u l Then what we have to do is make sure we understand how international diversification is best achieved.

Evidence Suggests Index Funds are Not for the International Investor l l l For the international investor the capitalizationweighted portfolio may not be the optimal one. The reason is market segmentation. The world stock market is not efficient yet, the evidence suggests, at least not in the "mean-variance efficiency" sense that is required by the CAPM. Because of real exchange risk (deviations from PPP), what is the optimal portfolio for an investor in one country may not be the optimal portfolio for an investor in another, even if there were a single risk-free asset acceptable to both. Studies confirm these propositions Copyright © 1996 Ian H. Giddy The Global capital Market 39
