Pablo Fernández | We sent a short email (see exhibit 1) on March, 2023 to more than 15,000 email addresses of finance and economics professors, analysts and managers of companies obtained from previous correspondence, papers and webs of companies and universities. We asked about the Risk-Free Rate (RF) and the Market Risk Premium (MRP) used “to calculate the required return to equity in different countries”.
By March 31, 2023, we had received 1,717 emails. 194 persons answered that they do not use MRP (see table 1), most of them use Km (required return to equity) but do not use MRP nor RF. The remaining emails had specific Risk-Free Rates and MRPs used in 2023 for one or more countries. We would like to sincerely thank everyone who took the time to answer us.
