By the so-called law of large numbers, the proportion of survivors L70=L55 tends to the individual survival probability 0:75 as the number of participants L55 tends to in nity. Therefore, as the

The central and un nished task of asset pricing theory is to understand and measure the sources of aggregate risk that drive asset prices.
