This is the biggest mistake wealthy investors make
Here's what wealthy investors say their biggest mistake is (FA Magazine)
A survey from Zurich-based deVere Group found that wealthy investors think failing to diversify their portfolios is their biggest investing mistake, reports Christopher Robbins.
"It is surprising how many people fail to do this," the firm's CEO, Nigel Green, said. "Having a well-diversified portfolio across asset classes, sectors and regions means you are best placed to mitigate risks and best placed to take advantage of important opportunities."
The investors named other big mistakes, including not investing earlier, focusing too much on the short-term, and being too emotional with their investments.

Yet we think investment success in the decade ahead will largely rest on a sophisticated understanding of how secular changes such as these are unfolding."
