PRESENTATION TOPIC--  Behavioral Finance

PRESENTATION OVERVIEW: 
We find ourselves torn between emotion and logic when making decisions. We also know that people decide differently under pressure or if high risks are involved—exactly the kind of scenario experienced by investors. We find that investors often expend too much energy trying to avoid making hard choices by looking for an informational advantage that will guarantee them a “sure thing.” Instead investors should simply focus on making better decisions. While none of us can avoid behavioral biases completely, processes can be put in place to help avoid the potential impact of these errors. In this presentation, we discuss a number of behavioral biases and what can be done to limit their impact. .

ATTEND THIS MEETING TO LEARN: 
1.  Why Behavioral Finance is relevant for investors.
2. How Behavioral Biases can affect investor decisions.
3. What can be done to limit the impact of Behavioral Biases.
