| Juhee | Any one explanation? isn't risk-averse related to investors' nature? |
| reganbaha | In a risk-averse setting, investors will require a higher return in order to participate in more risky investments, hence the risk premium would have to rise to entice these investors |
| ArainNow | Higher premiums entice investors to take risks. |
