Question

What is portfolio diversification?

Answer

Portfolio diversification is an investment strategy that spreads holdings across different asset classes, sectors, geographies, and investment types. The goal is to reduce the risk that any single position significantly damages the overall portfolio. A diversified portfolio combines investments that may respond differently to the same economic or market event, which seeks to reduce volatility over time.
