Question : When calculating the equity risk premium for a fully segmented market, in the example questions, why is the market sharpe ratio that same as for a fully integrated market?
Detail :
Fully integrated market: ERPi = ERPm / σm * σi * ρi,M
= Market sharpe ratio * asset SD * correlation of asset with market
When that asset is fully segmented, the reference market is the market segment itself.
The correlation with itself is 1 (I understand this)
But why is the market sharpe ratio unchanged from the fully integrated case?
