Abstract

The goal of this work is to present a new risk analysis model applied to the Brazilian stock market known as D-CAPM, and that represents an alternative to the CAPM Model. The model just considers as risky the negative part of the returns, since agents prefer to get more positive returns. Results demonstrate that both models present inconsistency when applied to the Brazilian stock market, as they go against one of the main principles of financial theory, according to which investments of more risk should present a history of higher returns. The work conclusions also indicate that the model is not as efficient when applied to markets that have problems with the traditional CAPM Model.
