  12. THE BENEFITS OF INTERNATIONAL EQUITY INVESTING 4. Calculation of Expected Return: rp = a rUS + ( 1 - a) rrw where rp = portfolio expected return rUS = expected U.S. market return rrw = expected global return

  13. THE BENEFITS OF INTERNATIONAL EQUITY INVESTING 5. Calculation of Expected Portfolio Risk = (P ) P = [a 2US2 + (1-a)2 r w2 + 2a(1-a) USrw US,rw]1/2 where US,rw = the cross-market correlation US2 = U.S. returns variance r w2 = World returns variance

  14. THE BENEFITS OF INTERNATIONAL EQUITY INVESTING 6. Cross-market correlations a. Recent markets seem to be most correlated when volatility is greatest b. Result: Efficient frontier retreats

  15. THE BENEFITS OF INTERNATIONAL EQUITY INVESTING D. Investing in Emerging Markets a. Offers highest risk and returns b. Low correlations with returns elsewhere c. As impediments to capital market mobility fall, correlations are likely to increase in the future.

  22. MEASURING TOTAL RETURNSFROM PORTFOLIO INVESTING Bond return formula: 1 + R$ =[1 +B(1) - B(0) + C](1+g) B(0) where R$ = dollar return B(1) = foreign currency bond price at time 1 C = coupon income g = depreciation/appreciation of foreign currency

  23. MEASURING TOTAL RETURNSFROM PORTFOLIO INVESTING B. Stocks (Calculating return) Formula: 1 + R$ =[1+ P(1) - P(0) + D](1+g) P(0) where R$ = dollar return P(1) = foreign currency stock price at time 1 D = foreign currency annual dividend
