Abstract
⺠We examine the effect of book-to-market equity on asset correlations. ⺠BE/ME is negatively related to asset correlations. ⺠BE/ME is positively related to operating risk of a firm. ⺠Operating risk of a firm is therefore negatively related to lower asset correlations. ⺠Incorporating operating risk may improve regulatory capital adequacy for banks.
