The model states that expected returns are determined by three factors: market risk, size risk, and value risk.<\/p>\n<p>The size factor is the second factor in the Fama-French three-factor model. It measures the size of a company, as measured by its market capitalization. The model predicts that small-cap stocks will have higher returns than large-cap stocks, after controlling for market risk and value risk.<\/p>\n<p>The size factor is one of the most robust factors in finance. It has been found to be significant in a wide range of countries and time periods. The size factor is also one of the most important factors for investors to consider when constructing a portfolio.<\/p>\n<p>The other two factors in the Fama-French three-factor model are market risk <div class=\"youtube-subscribe-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCNHT8lW-JmLC68rjBfZhdkg?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"youtube-subscribe-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"youtube-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 576 512\">\r\n                    <path d=\"M549.7 124.1c-6.3-23.7-24.8-42.3-48.3-48.6C458.8 64 288 64 288 64S117.2 64 74.6 75.5c-23.5 6.3-42 24.9-48.3 48.6-11.4 42.9-11.4 132.3-11.4 132.3s0 89.4 11.4 132.3c6.3 23.7 24.8 41.5 48.3 47.8C117.2 448 288 448 288 448s170.8 0 213.4-11.5c23.5-6.3 42-24.2 48.3-47.8 11.4-42.9 11.4-132.3 11.4-132.3s0-89.4-11.4-132.3zm-317.5 213.5V175.2l142.7 81.2-142.7 81.2z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Subscribe on YouTube\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> and value risk.
