Overview

Behavioural Finance in Portfolio Decision-Making explores how psychological factors and human behaviour influence investment decisions and portfolio management. Traditional financial theories assume that investors act rationally; however, behavioural finance recognises that emotions, biases, and cognitive limitations often affect financial choices. This course introduces the key concepts of behavioural finance and explains how these factors impact portfolio decision-making.

Throughout the course, learners will explore important topics such as investor psychology, cognitive biases, risk perception, and emotional decision-making in financial markets. You will learn how behavioural biases like overconfidence, loss aversion, and herd behaviour can influence investment strategies and portfolio performance. The course also highlights techniques used by financial professionals to recognise and manage behavioural biases in investment planning.

By the end of the course, learners will gain valuable insights into the relationship between psychology and financial decision-making. Whether you are an investor, finance professional, or student of financial markets, this course provides practical knowledge for making more informed and balanced portfolio decisions.
