What can COVID and crypto teach us about diversification? Should you manage your investments actively, passively, or a bit of both? And is there such a thing as being too diversified? 

Victoria Harris of The Curve tells Sharesies co-CEO Sonya why tried-and-true diversification strategies still hold up and why even Wall Street experts often anchor their portfolios in the humble broad-market ETF. Learn what makes a good diversification strategy and how to avoid over-diversifying.

Find out more about the classic “core-satellite” approach and managing risk through different cycles in the market (like the pandemic). Plus, why it can be so helpful to invest in what you actually know and use (like spotting investment opportunities while you’re in line at your favourite shops). 

Whether you're curious about ETFs, building your portfolio, or just trying to offset some risk, this episode just might help you sleep better at night.

What do Bitcoin and gold have in common? What’s a “core-and-explore” portfolio? Are you better off investing in global assets via the NZX, instead of an international exchange?

From Bitcoin's transformation from a fringe digital currency to a mainstream ETF investment, to gold's enduring status as the "original Bitcoin," Anna explains how Smart are making complex investments accessible to everyday investors.
