Faced with an uncertain environment, outcomes are determined by both skill at identifying opportunities and management of the associated risk. Investors tend to focus on identifying viable opportunities, but critical to successful investing outcomes is the issue of how much of an overall stake or fund should be committed to each investment? This talk will explore how critical to long term investment success is this issue of how much to commit to each position (the position size) both to avoid catastrophic loss and to optimise expected long-range returns.

Registration for this event will close at midnight the night prior to the event or when it reaches capacity.
