With a strategy of investing in a variety of asset types, regions, companies and sectors, you can help reduce risk.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-investment-diversification\">What is investment diversification?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A diversified portfolio contains a selection of different kinds of investments. \u00a0 Diversifying across a variety of asset types, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www6.royalbank.com\/en\/di\/hubs\/investing-academy\/chapter\/asset-mix-explained\/jv7atfjm\/jv7atfto?_ot=1747764166551-1:1,2:1,3:1,4:1&amp;_gl=1*1obcn8t*_gcl_au*MTQ4MTAyNDEwMi4xNzQ4MjYxMTA4*_ga*MTU4NTM2NDI5OS4xNjc3NTA2ODY4*_ga_89NPCTDXQR*czE3NTE5MTY3ODMkbzg0JGcxJHQxNzUxOTE3MDc5JGo1OCRsMCRoMA..&amp;_ot=1751917079479-1%3A1%2C2%3A1%2C3%3A1%2C4%3A1\" data-dig-id=\"LP-94951-3afc754b\" data-dig-category=\"LP\" data-dig-action=\"link click\" data-dig-label=\"stocks, bonds and GICs\" class=\"rbc-link-format\">stocks, bonds and GICs<\/a>, as well as industries, geographic regions, and stock market value, can help keep your investments on an even keel by reducing risk when the economy is uncertain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-s-a-simple-way-to-understand-diversification\">What&#8217;s a simple way to understand diversification?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Think&nbsp;of your portfolio as a pie, with slices that represent the various asset types you own. The size of these slices often varies depending on your investment investment objectives, time horizon and risk tolerance, but together they make up the whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-does-diversification-work-in-a-portfolio\">How does diversification work in a portfolio?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Investments rise and fall in value all the time. At any given moment, some assets are going up when others are going down. In a diversified portfolio mix, the assets on an upswing or holding steady can balance those on their way down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-is-diversification-important-for-my-investments\">Why is diversification important for my investments?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In today\u2019s uncertain \u2014 and, at times, volatile \u2014 economic landscape, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rbcroyalbank.com\/en-ca\/my-money-matters\/inspired-investor\/investing-academy\/just-the-faqs-bear-vs-bull-markets\/\" data-dig-id=\"LP-94951-326659ed\" data-dig-category=\"LP\" data-dig-action=\"link click\" data-dig-label=\"fluctuations\" class=\"rbc-link-format\">fluctuations<\/a> in the market can become less predictable and more frequent. The value of your investments will rise and fall, but if you have a portfolio of investments that respond differently to fluctuations, you&#8217;ll be better prepared to ride out the ups and downs.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-does-investment-diversification-manage-risk\">How does investment diversification manage risk?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Having a balanced portfolio can help to reduce overall risk in your portfolio and stabilize your returns over time. Some of your investments may carry higher risk but offer higher returns. Others might offer a lower return but preserve more of the principal. By taking both of these approaches, your portfolio can manage risks more effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-can-i-avoid-common-misconceptions-about-diversifying\">How can I avoid common misconceptions about diversifying?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Myths about how diversification works can lead to poor investment decisions.

The economies of Asia, Europe and North America experience ups and downs at different times. This affects the performance of companies in those regions. Diversifying your geographic reach with a mix of domestic and international stocks is a great way to balance your portfolio because your investments aren\u2019t concentrated in any one country or region. This also gives you access to opportunities not available in Canada and North America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-market-capitalization\">Market Capitalization<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Diversify your portfolio by including companies of varying sizes. Stocks are categorized by the level of their capitalization. Large-cap stocks are typically more stable and established. Small-cap companies often deliver higher rewards but are more volatile. And mid-cap stocks offer a balance between stability and growth potential, depending on market conditions and other factors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-more-ways-to-diversify\">More ways to diversify<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-rbc-list is-style-blue-disc\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-rbc-list-item mar-l mob-mar-l\">\n<p>Keep an eye on the number and concentration of your holdings.
