Evaluating Risk

PenderFund

In the second of this two part series on risk, David Barr and Felix Narhi move from talking about risk assessment at the company level to risk management at the portfolio level. One of the key aspects is cash management - having cash on hand always helps to make better decisions and, at the end of the day, investing is a probabilistic endeavor so it’s all about making the best decisions possible. Felix and David also discuss concentration, sector diversification and alignment. Circle of competence makes another reappearance with a significant role to play in risk assessment at the portfolio level as well.
