Increases in risk and demand for risky asset.

In this paper, we examine the effect of a decrease in risk on the demand for risky asset in the standard portfolio problem. We introduce a new class of dominance, that we name relative order and we prove that this class of dominance is consistent both with central dominance introduced by Gollier [5] and with mean preserving increase in risk. Finally, we show that some known classes of dominance are particular cases of our new class of dominance.
