In the first chapter, it was stated that financial managers should act to maximize shareholder wealth. Why are the efficient markets hypothesis (EMH), the CAPM, and the SML so important in the accomplishment of this objective?

On Apr 30, 2024


In simple terms, one could say that maximizing shareholder wealth by maximizing the current share price (File: Chapter 1) is a reasonable objective if and only if we have some assurance that observed prices are meaningful; i.e., that they reflect the value of the firm. This is a major implication of the EMH. Further, if we are to be able to assess the wealth effects of future decisions on security and firm values, we must have a valuation model whose parameters can be shown to be affected by those decisions (Chapters 7 & 8). Finally, any valuation model we employ will require us to quantify return and risk (Chapters 12 and 13).
