问题如下:
With respect to risk-averse investors, a risk-free asset will generate a numerical utility that is:
选项:
A.the same for all individuals.
B.positive for risk-averse investors.
C.equal to zero for risk seeking investors.
解释:
A is correct.
A risk-free asset has a variance of zero and is not dependent on whether the investor is risk neutral, risk seeking or risk averse. That is, given that the utility function of an investment is expressed as , where A is the measure of risk aversion, then the sign of A is irrelevant if the variance is zero (like that of a risk-free asset).
有两个问题:
- 看了这个解释没看懂:https://class.pzacademy.com/qa/57654,按这个说法B不应该是对的吗?
- 对于risk averse,risk neutral和risk seeking的人群,A为0,utility对这三种人群是否都是一样的?
