Tell me; what exactly is diversification and how do we evaluate it?

09 Nov 2022

About the event

What exactly is diversification when building investment portfolios? It may sound like a simple question but try to answer and focus on definitions. You’ll quickly note that the quantitative definition is likely inadequate. Optimising a portfolio’s Sharpe ratio? Maximising Entropy? Minimising a HerfindahlHirschman Index? Although you see the word ‘diversification’ being used almost everywhere in an investment philosophy or in brochures; investors still wrestle with how exactly we evaluate or measure it over time.
