Risk components and the market model: a pedagogical note

Øyvind Bøhren

Applied Financial Economics, 1997, vol. 7, issue 3, 307-310

Abstract: Teaching modern finance involves familiarizing the student with terms like total risk, systematic risk, unique risk, beta, and R2. Although each of these concepts may be relatively easy to communicate and digest one by one, it is harder to see their internal links. Using the logic of the market model, this note offers a simple framework for presenting the basic risk concepts in an integrated way.
