(Without loss of generality assume that the expected/maximal exposures mentioned here correspond to a single time point in future, T.) Bank A uses for economic capital (EC) a measure equal to: 1.4 * EPE. Bank B, instead, uses the weighted average: 70% * EPE + 30% * ME. How small (or, indeed, how big?) does the ME (maximal exposure) need to be, relative to the EPE, for Bank A to end up putting aside (for this specific EC aspect) more EC than Bank B?

Assume that the risk-free rate, RF, is currently 8%, the market return, RM, is 12%, and asset A has a beta, of 1.10. (could be done on word document or excel). Assume that as a result of recent economic events, inflationary expectations have declined by 3%, lowering RF and RM to 5% and 9%, respectively. Draw the new SML on the axes in part a, and calculate and show the new required return for asset A. Assume that as a result of recent events, investors have become more risk averse, causing the market return to rise by 2%, to be14%. Ignoring the shift in part c, draw the new SML on the same set of axes that you used before, and calculate and show the new required return for asset A. From the previous changes, what conclusions can be drawn about the impact of (1) decreased inflationary expectations and (2) increased risk aversion on the required returns of risky assets?
