Investment Diversity
When it comes to equity investing, diversity is often considered fundamental in reducing the overall risk of a failing fund or share.
Yet in a poll conducted by the fund manager, Schroders this year, findings showed 1.5 million investors are leaving themselves over exposed by holding all of their equity in one single company and a further 1 million of those shares held directly, have at least 90 per cent of their investment in the stock of one company.
Ironically, the research concluded that the main reason an investor gave for not diversifying was because their aim was to make a capital gain on the directly held shares.
This is a riskier strategy as you are solely dependent on the success of one company and should the business run into difficulty, the investor could be left with little or no value.
It is advisable to build a balanced investment portfolio across a range of asset classes and investments, such as stocks, mutual funds, index funds, small and large cap funds.
Having built, what may be considered, a balanced portfolio, it is then important to review it regularly as the value of investments can change dramatically and you need to guard against your risk becoming unintentionally concentrated, whether through success or failure.
