description | This paper examines both the benefits of choosing an
internationally diversified portfolio and the evolution of the portfolio risk
in the context of the current global financial crisis. The portfolio is
comprised of three benchmark indexes from Romania, UK and USA.
Study results show that on the background of a global economic climate
eroded strongly by the effects of the current financial crisis, international
diversification does not reduce risk. Moreover, using ARCH and GARCH
models shows that the evolution of portfolio volatility is influenced by the
effects of the current global financial crisis. |
