Investment options: equity and fixed income portfolios

When defining a investment portfolio It is essential to analyze two questions: investment term and risk profile of the target investor. On this occasion, we will take as examples two investment portfolios composed only of Argentine assets.

If we assume that both portfolios focus on the long termwe have the risk aversion as a parameter to define the investment strategy.

Consequently, using the volatility as the main risk factor (given that the Argentine risk would be implicit in both portfolios), we can divide between an exclusive portfolio of variable income and another of fixed income.
