Market risk & Diversifiable risk








Market risk is that part of a security’s risk that cannot be eliminated by diversification. Firm-specific, or diversifiable, risk is that part of a security’s risk that can be eliminated by diversification. As more stocks are added, each new stock has a smaller risk-reducing impact on the portfolio. p falls very slowly after about 40 stocks are included. The lower limit for p is M

26

Component of Risk
Total Risk = Systematic Risk + Unsystematic Risk




 

When you add more and more stocks to the portfolio, the unsystematic risk gets reduced and The risk that you bear is the Systematic Risk (SR) of individual stocks What is the measure of SR of return of a stock It is the beta of the stock.

    Corporate social responsibility (CSR) has long been a touchy issue for governments not just in Australia, but around the world as well. Companies in Australia are governed by the corporation’s act, which outlines the legal capacity and power of a company. The Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) s 57A1, defines a corporation as a separate legal entity, that includes any corporate body and unincorporated bodies that may sue, be sued or hold property in the name of an office holder appointed for that purpose. In context of corporate governance, the main issue is with the current legislation is in regards to director’s duties. Under the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) s1802, directors have a civil obligation to act with due care and diligence, with best interest of the corporation in mind. This civil obligation however, does not extend to certain classes of stakeholders other then shareholders. Modern day companies often have a great impact on society at large, through the various activities they conduct. Given the broad economic, environmental and social impacts they have, it is understandable that a push has been made for director’s duties to extend beyond shareholders, and include stakeholders at large.…

    The formation of a legal entity or a company is in simple words a matter of legal formality. A contract is that legal obligation by which a legal entity ascertains its legal status. Contracts can be considered as the basis of these formalities. As the formation of these contracts involve various discussions at different stages by more than one person pre-incorporation contracts become inevitable. A company normally will not be able to enter into a contract without coming into existence. Usually a pre-incorporation contract comes into existence prior to the formation of a company. The simple reason behind a pre-incorporation contract is that before incorporation a company a company does not have any legal existence, and if the ‘association of persons ' enters into an agreement in the name of company before incorporation; the agreement would be void ab initio. It would be a matter of inconvenience that ‘an association of persons ' cannot perform any official business operation in the name of company before its incorporation or the issue of certificate of commencement of business. Therefore the promoter can enter into a business or agreements on behalf of the association of persons or prospective company.…
