THE EFFECT OF RISK FREE LENDING ON THE EFFICIENT SET
• THE EFFECTS OF RISK FREE LENDING ON THE EFFICIENT SET– Two Boundaries Result
• a line emanating from the risk free rate to the risk portfolio B(line segment r B)
• a combination of risky assets with various weights(line segment r T)
• there will be no efficient combined portfolio northwest of the combination of portfolios
