Abstract

We start by considering the investment process depicted in Fig. 4.1. The discussion of return and risk in the previous Chaps. 2 and 3 is relevant for all parts of the investment process. We proceed by focusing on the different steps in the investment process. The topics of this chapter are the asset allocation, portfolio construction and rebalancing. The evaluation of the investment strategy will follow in Chap. 5.
