Abstract/Summary
There are three factors investors take into account: the amount of money available, search for satisfaction and the risk involved. Of the three, the third is usually the one overlooked and is the most intangible. At present, for the Filipino investors, the uncertainty in an investment inhibits their bahavior, aptly described as risk aversion. The objectives of this study are the following: under specified constraints,1) to measure how risk-averse investors are 2) to evaluate how well expected utility can explain the behavior towards risk aversion of the Filipino investors and3) to evaluate the applicability of modern finance theory to the Filipino investors.
