12、l distributionWhen comparing securities,the one with the largest standard deviation is the riskier If returns and standard deviations between two securities are different,the investor must make a decision between the tradeoff of the expected return and the standard deviation of each10Principles of D

20、nt of the entire portfolioThe risk premium that investors demand will be in proportion to the systematic risk of the security Riskier security must offer investors higher expected returnsExtra expected return on a risky security above the risk-free rate will be proportional to the risk contribution of a security to a well-diversified portfolio16
