Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An investment portfolio refers to a collection of financial assets held by investors, such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and other securities. It is a diversified collection that aims to minimize risk and maximize returns. Option A is incorrect because an art collection is not a financial asset. Option B is partially correct as brokers can hold portfolios on behalf of investors, but it is not the only way portfolios are held. Option D is incorrect, as the risk level of a portfolio depends on the assets within it and how they are balanced, so it cannot be generalized as riskier than one stock.
