Abstract

The chapter extends the Markowitz model to a financial market with a risk-free asset. It lists the data of the model, states the fundamental assumptions, and describes the Markowitz optimization problem in this setting. A criterion for portfolio efficiency and an explicit formula for an efficient portfolio with the given risk tolerance are derived and discussed.
