Assume that you manage a risky portfolio with an expected rate of return of 12% and a standard deviation of 44%. The T-bill rate is 5%.
Your client chooses to invest 80% of a portfolio in your fund and 20% in a T-bill money market fund.
What is the expected return of your client's portfolio? (Enter your answer as a decimal number rounded to four decimal places.)
Expected return?
Portfolio return is equal to weighted average return
= 12%*80% + 5%*20%
= 10.6%
Hence, the answer is 0.106 or 10.6%
