Hi everyone,
In this week’s Smart Investing, we discuss portfolio rebalancing strategies and how often investors should monitor their portfolios to ensure their asset allocation hasn’t drifted too far from their target.
Senior Personal Finance Writer, Tony Kaye, also analyses the growing popularity of diversified funds and why more investors are choosing them as a way to offset ongoing market volatility.
Lastly, we have included a blog by our economists on why economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic will vary from country to country.
