Its not uncommon Many a well-educated, socially conscious, environmentally friendly investor winds up buying shares of companies whose beliefs and business practices are far removed from their own. Why? Most investors simply havent thought about merging their personal beliefs with their investment strategies. Some may not even be aware of where and how their money is invested.

Recently the diversified portfolio managers at FIM Group presented a webinar titled "Security vs. Risk," in which we addressed various risks facing investors. One of the areas we touched on was the risks surrounding foreign investments, but we did not address it in detail.A client recently asked me, "Why do I have so many investments in companies whose names I don't recognize? Aren't foreign investments risky?" This is a very timely question given what the US and some likeminded foreign countries have recently experienced, contrasted to what many other countries avoided and the new landscape that has resulted.Conventional wisdom used to be that "foreign" investments possessed more inherent risk and, in some cases, correspondingly more potential opportunity than U.S. investments. Part of the paradigm that supported this theory was structural. The US-based financial system had the strongest footing, the regulatory environment was among the world's most...more
