Modern Portfolio Theory
Modern Portfolio Theory (MPT), developed by Harry Markowitz (1952), provides a mathematical framework for constructing portfolios that maximise expected return for a given level of risk. The key insight: by combining assets that do not move in perfect lockstep, a portfolio can achieve lower overall volatility than any of its individual components — without sacrificing return proportionally.
