Synopsis

Increasing technological change and the opening of world markets have unleashed a flood of diverse opportunities for investors. For those with a basic knowledge of portfolio management and a smart strategy in place, true prosperity can be discovered in the new world economy. Fortune Strategy is the thinking person's guide to global investment opportunities and how smart portfolio management can shape your financial future.
Benefits A good portfolio strategy is about more than merely keeping a lot of eggs in your basket. It is about successfully offsetting the risk of a breakage whilst ensuring that the individual investments reach a higher state of maturity together than if they had been left to develop on their own.
Fortune Strategy is an invaluable guide to modern portfolio management and illustrates how through careful diversification you can obtain the highest returns possible from your portfolio without taking unacceptable risks. This book will:
- explain how investment markets really work and how they can be harnessed for profit
- provide you with information on the new global economy, technological developments, and the menagerie of new financial products available
- show you how to take advantage of new trends
- illustrate how to assess and manage the risks involved by using proven techniques
- explain recent developments in portfolio theory, such as behavioural finance which sheds light on what drives investment markets, why and how they become misvalued, and how this affects your strategy. So, if you have a wide-ranging portfolio that needs a cohesive and integrated approach to risk and reward, you need a fortune strategy.
