You manage a risky portfolio with an expected rate of return of 17% and a standard deviation of 38%. The T-bill rate is 6%. Your client chooses to invest 85% of a portfolio in your fund and 15% in a T-bill money market fund. What is the reward-to-volatility (Sharpe) ratio (S) of your risky portfolio? Your client’s?

Expected return on client = Weight of you * return of you+ (Weight of client)*Return of cleint

=0.85*0.17+0.15*0.06

Expected return = 0.1535

IT is straight to find the standard deviation of client = Weight of You * standard deviation = 0.85*0.38 = 0.323

Sharpe ratio of you = Return - Risk freerate / Standard deviation = 17-6 / 38 = 0.2895

Sharpe ratio of client = Return - Risk freerate / Standard deviation = 15.35-6 / 32.3 = 0.2895
