Answer / vijesh

Beta is referred to as financial elasticity or correlated
relative volatility, and can be referred to as a measure of
the asset's sensitivity of the asset's returns to market
returns, its non-diversifiable risk, its systematic risk or
market risk. On an individual asset level, measuring beta
can give clues to volatility and liquidity in the
marketplace. On a portfolio level, measuring beta is
thought to separate a manager's skill from his or her
willingness to take risk.

The beta movement should be distinguished from the actual
returns of the stocks. For example, a sector may be
performing well and may have good prospects, but the fact
that its movement does not correlate well with the broader
market index may decrease its beta. However, it should not
be taken as a reflection on the overall attractiveness or
the loss of it for the sector, or stock as the case may be.
Beta is a measure of risk and not to be confused with the
attractiveness of the investment

CASE STUDY: S.C. Computers has been mismanaged by its promoter. The Company has over 50,000 employees with software expertise. It has clients over the last 15 years in 50 countries. The mismanagement has led to a severe cash crunch with no cash to meet even salary requirements. While the internal situation is one of financial and employee morale crisis, externally it enjoys the confidence of its clientele. The Government wants such a valuable institution, built over several years, to be saved so that it can continue to contribute to national wealth creation, but at the same time does not wish to extend direct financial assistance, lest it amounts to encouraging or subsidizing mismanagement. In one page, suggest the broad elements of a Business Continuity Plan covering all aspects (not just financial alone) specifically applicable to this situation.
