Risk is a complex subject. It is more about perception and psychology than objective reality. There is no absolute measure of risk. Risk is tied to uncertainty, hidden, ignored, or unpredictable events. People tend to overestimate dangers they can see and underestimate those that are hidden or unfamiliar (Kahneman & Tversky, 1979). Since risk cannot be eliminated, the best way to manage it is through effective risk management policies. Risk management is about preparation - not prediction.
INVARSIA can help businesses and investors protect assets, navigate uncertainty, and ensure long-term success through tailored risk mitigation strategies and procedures.
Even though INVARSIA does not focus on traditional financial products like bonds, distressed debt, derivatives or stocks, we find the following message from Howard Marks (Oaktree Capital Management) to be highly insightful and broadly applicable to general investments and asset management.
