Fisher Investments’ founder, Executive Chairman and Co-Chief Investment Officer Ken Fisher discusses how “home country bias” can affect investors’ ability to reach their long-term financial goals. As Ken explains, it’s natural for investors to prefer stocks or bonds from their own country—or region—because of their familiarity. However, Ken says this approach can limit an investor’s ability to properly diversify their portfolio and may come at an opportunity cost.
By owning a variety of countries and categories, Ken says investors can protect their portfolio from shifts in market leadership and gain exposure to broader global trends.
