<<<<b>bb>>bb>bb>>><b>bb>b>bb>>bb>bb>>>>Modernb>bb>>bb>bb>>><b>bb>b>bb>>bb>bb>>>> <<b>bb>>portfoliob>bb>> theory (MPT) proposes how rational investors will use diversification to optimize their portfolios, and how an asset should be priced given its risk relative to the market as a whole.
MPT models the return of an asset as a random variable and a <<b>bb>>portfoliob>bb>> as a weighted combination of assets; the return of a <<b>bb>>portfoliob>bb>> is thus also a random variable and consequently has an expected value and a variance.

 The emergence of Foreign <<b>bb>>Portfoliob>bb>> Investment
Drawing on <<<<b>bb>>bb>bb>>><b>bb>b>bb>>bb>bb>>>>modernb>bb>>bb>bb>>><b>bb>b>bb>>bb>bb>>>> <<b>bb>>portfoliob>bb>> theory, a number of studies using long term data showed that investors free to choose foreign assets can obtain a significantly better risk/return trade-off than if they are restricted to assets from one country (Fischer and Reisen, 1994).
Foreign direct investment was an important channel for flows to all regions in these years but <<b>bb>>portfoliob>bb>> investment was relatively unimportant and largely involved bond issues in the Euromarkets by a few of the more credit-worthy developing countries.
Another critical development that contributed to the rise in foreign <<b>bb>>portfoliob>bb>> investment over the last decade was the worldwide wave of privatisations initiated by the Thatcher government in the United Kingdom in the early 1980s that culminated in the restructuring of Third World economies and formerly centrally planned economies in the 1980s and 1990s.

The insight of <<<<b>bb>>bb>bb>>><b>bb>b>bb>>bb>bb>>>>modernb>bb>>bb>bb>>><b>bb>b>bb>>bb>bb>>>> <<b>bb>>portfoliob>bb>> theory is that maximum correlation is 1, and a <<b>bb>>portfoliob>bb>> with 2 securities each with the same return and risk will have less risk than the 2 securities individually.
The expected returns of a <<b>bb>>portfoliob>bb>> of these assets is simply the weighted average of expected returns, and the standard deviation of each <<b>bb>>portfoliob>bb>> is computed using the <<b>bb>>portfoliob>bb>> standard deviation formula above.
The trade-off between risk and return is one of the central tenets of Finance.

<<<<b>bb>>bb>bb>>><b>bb>b>bb>>bb>bb>>>>Modernb>bb>>bb>bb>>><b>bb>b>bb>>bb>bb>>>> <<b>bb>>Portfoliob>bb>> Theory (MPT) essentially holds that the most important factor to keep track of in an investment <<b>bb>>portfoliob>bb>> is the trade-off between risk and return, and that the prior focus of investment management -- stock picking -- was of relatively little importance.
Treynor did so during the 1962-63 academic year, and during the fall of 1962 parsed his 1961 paper into a single-period CAPM (rewritten using the first-order conditions instead of state-space) which is probably the most famous unpublished <<<<b>bb>>bb>bb>>><b>bb>b>bb>>bb>bb>>>>modernb>bb>>bb>bb>>><b>bb>b>bb>>bb>bb>>>> paper in finance ("Toward a Theory of Market Value of Risky Assets").
