- Asset Allocation Right Mix Part 1 For Savvy Seniors
Asset Allocation – Do you have the right mix? (Part 1 - Savvy Seniors)
1. What does 'asset allocation' mean in personal finance?
Correct option B - Asset allocation is the strategy of dividing your investments among asset classes like equity, debt, gold, or real estate based on your goals, age, and risk tolerance.
2. What is the biggest advantage of good asset allocation?
Correct option C - Asset allocation means deciding how much of your money should go into different asset classes like equity, debt, gold, etc. It’s about finding the right balance for your goals, age, and risk appetite that fits your personal situation.
3. What is diversification in investing?
Correct option B - Diversification is about not putting all your eggs in one basket. Even within one asset class (like equity), you can spread investments across different sectors or companies to reduce risk if one area performs poorly.
4. What is rebalancing in asset allocation?
Correct option B - Over time, your asset allocation can drift. Rebalancing helps bring it back in line with your goals and risk tolerance.
5. How does asset allocation help during market ups and downs?
Correct option C - During market volatility, well-allocated portfolios are less likely to see extreme swings because all assets don’t perform in same way in different market cycles.
6. What’s the main focus of asset allocation after retirement?
Correct option B - At this age, your priority should be capital safety and a steady income stream, not aggressive growth.
7. Why should retirees still consider keeping 10–20% of their portfolio in equity?
Correct option C - Retirees may live for another 20–30 years after retirement, so they still need their money to grow and keep up with inflation. A limited exposure to equity (around 10–20%), when managed wisely, provides that growth potential without putting the entire portfolio at risk. The rest can be in safer, income-generating assets for stability.
8. What’s a smart way to withdraw money during retirement?
Correct option C - Planning steady withdrawals helps your money last longer and avoids panic during market dips.
