There are three (risky) assets and one risk-free There are three (risky) assets and one risk-free asset in the market. The risk-free rate is asset in the market. The risk-free rate is rf = 1%,rf = 1%, and the distribution of returns of risky assets is and the distribution of returns of risky assets is normal with the following parametersnormal with the following parameters
