One of the most important lessons 2020 has taught us is that diversification remains an investors best defense against various market cycles. In this Market Matters Podcast Stephen Brierley, Head of Retail at Old Mutual Multi-Managers discusses the power of diversification by selecting the right mix of securities, asset classes, regions and fund managers to match the profile and goals of each investor.
