00:18Of the portfolio for three assets, so how to find out variance of the portfolio for three assets when covariance metrics is given? Okay, so covariance Matrix for three assets, okay, so it goes like this: asset example, domestic stocks, I'm just taking this example from treasure, domestic bonds, and international employees
01:23International equities, similarly here, domestic stocks, domestic bonds, and then international equities
02:02Okay, so here it is: 400, 44, 180, 44, 70, 35, 180, 35, 450
02:27So this is the question
02:32Now I can consider, you know, this is Stock A, B, C, A, B, C
02:46So this is covariance matrix
02:47So this is as good as covariance A comma A, okay, this A and this A, and this one is covariance B comma B, it is B and this B, this one is covariance C comma C, this one and this one, and this 44 is covariance B comma A, and A, this is covariance C comma A
03:32Similarly, this is covariance A comma B, this is A and B, this is covariance C comma A, C command K, this is covariance A comma C, A
03:57Performance, this is covariance being C, okay, okay, so this is the given condition, and plus, so let's say we have invested 60 percentage of the assets in, can we stop, a, that is domestic bonds, sorry, domestic stocks, and then 30 percentage invested in Stock B, which is domestic bonds, and the remaining 10 percentage is invested in international equities, which is stock C, so I've marked this as stop C, Interventional equities, so this is the question, how do I find out variance of the portfolio, 0.3 assets, so I set a domestic stock asset, bit domestic bonds, and then asset C, International equities, okay, so first of all
05:56Variance of your portfolio for two assets is equal to weight A, standard deviation A squared, plus weight B, standard deviation B squared, plus 2 into weight A, standard deviation A, into weight B, standard deviation B, plus, sorry, into R
06:46So this is the formula for variance of the portfolio for two assets
06:53I can further elaborate this formula as my weight A into standard deviation A squared, plus weight B into standard deviation B squared, plus 2 into weight A into standard deviation A into weight B into standard deviation B into covariance of A, comma B, divided by standard deviation of A into standard
07:24Deviation, so standard deviation, a, a gets canceled, standard deviation, b, b gets canceled, so I will be left out with weight a increase standard deviation V square plus weight B into standard deviation B whole square plus 2 into weight a into weight V into covariance of a comma B, okay? So if you want further, you know, explanation on this portfolio, you can click on the upper link and, you know, get the details where I have explained all this further, okay? But otherwise, coming to this formula where I need the formula for variance of a portfolio for three assets, variance of a portfolio for three assets, so for three
08:24Assets, how will I do so? It is weight A, standard deviation A square, plus weight B, standard deviation B square
08:38Just, you know, I am taking this formula only here, and then because I have three assets here, I will say plus weight C, standard deviation C square, weight C, standard deviation C square, plus 2 into weight A X into weight B, covariance of A, comma B, okay? And then further, I will elaborate A, comma B
09:27Further, I will elaborate this as 2 into weight A B, so let's say B and weight C, okay? Here I used weight A VP, so I'll use weight B, weight C, and covariance of B, comma C, plus, so I used A B, then B C, now I will use A and C, so 2 into weight A into
09:56Weight C, covariance of a column C, so this is, this is the formula, okay? So if you see, I'm just extending this formula, okay, thinking from three assets perspective, the previous one was two assets perspective
10:20So once I get this formula, then there is one more thing to learn from here
10:26See this, I can write is weight a stand, square standard deviation a square, okay, weight b square, standard deviation b square, plus create C square, standard deviation C square, plus 2 into weight a, weight B into covariance of a, comma B, plus 2 into B, weight C, o variance of B, comma C, plus I'm just going to rewrite this one, so this is the case now
11:35Once I get this thing, this is the, this is the actual formula now
11:38So once I get this, so over here, how do I do this sum with this formula? Because here it is asking about variance, okay, variance, this is variance
11:49So standard deviation, square variance of A, variance of B, variance of C, and then weight A, weight B, I know which is, you know, 60 and 30 percentage, it is mentioned here, weight A, 30, 60, question 30 percent is 10 percentage
12:06So I know the weight, what I don't know is, I know the covariance also
12:11So covariance of A, B is of the covariance of A, B
12:16So covariance of A, comma B is here 44
12:21So I know the covariance as well, so I know the
12:24Covariance of A, comma B, I know the covariance of, you know, C, comma AC, comma A, or A, comma C, it's one and the same, okay? So covariance of your C, comma A, is 180, or A, comma C, 180, so you have A, comma C, it is 180, okay? So covariance also I know, weight also I know, in this formula, what I don't know now is the variance, so how do I get the variance? Now here comes another derivation, so now this derivation is covariance, covariance of A, comma A, is equal to variance of A, okay? So how do I do this? Because covariance of A, comma B, is equal to summation of, summation of A
13:43Minus A bar into B minus B bar divided by n minus 1
13:51Okay, now when I say covariance is between A comma A only, not B, so in that case, summation of A minus A bar, again A minus A bar divided by n minus 1, so it becomes summation of A minus A bar the whole square divided by n minus 1, and that is nothing but, you know, variance
14:22So this is the formula of variance, so that's why covariance of A comma A is equal to variance of A, so once it is proved that covariance of A comma A is equal to variance of A, covariance of B comma B is equal to variance of B, and similarly covariance of C comma C is equal to variance of C, so now you see here wake 8 is
15:15Um, weight is 60 percentage square into this is variance of A, so variance of A is covariance of A, comma A, so that is equal to 400, so 400
15:34Plus weight of B squared, so B's weight is 30 percentage square, and variance of B is covariance of B, so covariance of B is 70, so 70 square, okay, yeah, so square will not come, this itself is the variance here, 70
16:12Plus C's weight is 10 percentage square, and covariance of C, covariance of C is 450 is what, so I'll write 450 here, plus 2 into weight A into weight, weight is 60 percent into weight B is 30 percentage into covariance of A, comma B, so four variance of A, comma B is 44, so 44 plus 2 into
16:58Weight B into weight C, so weight B is 30%, into 10%, into covariance of B, comma C, so B, comma C, covariance of B, comma C, here it is 35, so 35
17:16Plus then 2 into weight A is number 14, so 60%, rate C is 10%, so 10 and 16 into covariance of, covariance of A, C to covariance of A, comma C, A, comma C is 180
18:08Okay, so when you solve all this, you should get equal to 194.34, okay? So you can solve, you can solve this part and keep it, you know, and store it, keep it in store one, solve this part, store two, store three in store four, store five, and then store six, okay? So you will get this answer, right? And if They ask the standard deviation, all you have to do is you have to take this square root, so standard deviation of the portfolio of these three assets is equal to root of 194.34
19:27Okay, so which will come to 13.94 percentage
19:36Next, thank you so much for watching this.
