Description:
The book that applies behavioral finance to the real world
Understanding how to use behavioral finance theory in investing
is a hot topic these days. Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman has
described financial advising as a prescriptive activity whose main
objective should be to guide investors to make decisions that serve
their best interests. The reality? That's easier said than done. In
the Second Edition of Behavioral Finance and Wealth
Management, Michael Pompian takes a practical approach to the
growing science of behavioral finance, and puts it to use for real
investors. He applies knowledge of 20 of the most prominent
individual investor biases into "behaviorally-modified" asset
allocation decisions. Offering investors and financial advisors a
"self-help" book, Pompian shows how to create investment strategies
that leverage the latest cutting edge research into behavioral
biases of individual investors. This book:
Shows investors and financial advisors how to either moderate
or adapt to behavioral biases, in order to improve investment
results and identifies "the best practical allocation" for
investment portfolios. Using these two sound approaches for guiding
investment decision-making, behavioral biases are incorporated into
the portfolio management process
Uses updated cases studies to show investors and financial
advisors how an investor's behavior can be modified to improve
investment decision-making
Provides useable methods for creating behaviorally modified
investment portfolios, which may help investors to reach their long
term financial goals
