In the latest of our Finance Talks podcasts recorded on March, 2022, Professor Henrik Lumholdt of IE University’s Master in Finance discusses asset allocation with students Anna Gostevcic and Frederique Haverhais. Professor Lumholdt’s extensive experience makes his insight into this most dynamic field particularly valuable, and in the discussion they cover a lot of ground, beginning with a discussion of the “top-down” approach to asset allocation. Henrik explains that it’s critical to look at the big picture. Asset management, he says, is not just about stocks in a given sector, or other specific considerations—top-down factors like high inflation will always be present, so a wide view is required.
