Is Diversification Important to Your Portfolio?

Hello readers and welcome to our new Blogposts. Today we are going to share a blog on why Diversification is important to your portfolio. As the financial manager of your portfolio, it’s our responsibility to make you understand the importance and significance of diversification. Diversification is very important for investors whether it is across asset classes or within an asset class. It keeps any part of our investment assets from being too heavily weighted toward one company. In Diversification your different investments value changes at different times.

Diversification is a technique that reduces the investment risk by allocating investments across various financial instruments, industries, and other categories. It aims to maximize returns by investing in different areas that would each react differently to the same event. Despite you want that all your positions will soar, there will be a time when some of your holdings will lose money. When that occurs, you need other investments to neutralize the decline.

Fund Variety

Many investors diversify their portfolio by buying different types of Equity or debt funds. We as a financial advisor recommend beginning with a broad- based index fund that simply tries to image the performance of the S&P 500. You can also complement that index fund with a few different ones of varying risk levels. These could include funds that:

• Purchase shares in overseas companies
• Consist shares of small growth companies
• Invest in bonds
• Buy shares in REITs
• Each of these fund types performs else under different request conditions.

Asset Allocation

Asset Allocation is the most popular form of diversification. By having elements of different investment classes in your portfolio including stocks, bonds, cash, real estate, gold, or other goods. You can protect your portfolio from losing the value that it might have.

When stock prices fall, for e.g. bond prices frequently raise because investors move their money into what's considered a less risky investment. So a portfolio that included stocks and bonds would perform differently than one that included only stocks at the time of a stock request drop. While it's true your portfolio wouldn't rise as snappily as it would with all stocks, it also protects you from a massive loss.
