Smart Investing by PGIM India Mutual Fund

A 1986 study titled Determinants of Portfolio Performance by Brinson, Hood and Beebower showed that asset allocation explained 93.6% of the variation in a portfolio’s return. This clearly shows the importance of following an asset allocation approach to investing rather than chasing return or flavour of the season. In this episode, Personal Finance Expert Lisa Pallavi Barbora and Ravi Samalad from PGIM India Mutual Fund discuss what asset allocation is, different types of asset allocation, its benefits, what goes into making a diversified portfolio and more.
