“Risk-Return Benefits of International Diversification to Indian Investors”
Journal Title: International Journal of Business and Management Invention - Year 2019, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper deals with international diversification and how it can be beneficial for an Indian investor. The data from an Indian stock index has been analysed and compared with data from the indices of six other countries around the world, namely Japan, UK, USA, Canada, China and Australia. The main focus is on the Healthcare & Pharmaceutical industry. This comparison has been done using portfolios comprised 50% of the Indian healthcare index Nifty Pharma and 50% of one other national healthcare index. The data from the indices of the six countries has been currency-adjusted in order to show the real gain that an Indian investor might make in terms of Indian National Rupees (INR), as there is a possibility of gains that are made in the foreign currency being nullified after accounting for currency adjustments. This analysis has been done with the aim of finding the advantages and disadvantages of international diversification, keeping in mind the risk and returns that it might bring to the investor.
