Asset Allocation and its importance in portfolio building by Saloni Gupta

For most of your life, you will be earning and spending money. You will use this money to spend on things you like. Now, sometimes your current income will exceed current consumption desires and you will have a surplus. This money imbalance will make you think about methods where you can give up immediate possession of your savings for higher level of future consumption. What you do with the savings to make them increase overtime is called "investment".

In my two part series presentation, we will talk about how does asset allocation play an important role in portfolio building?
