Programme Overview
Behavioural finance offers exciting insights into the role of human behaviour in financial decision-making. It has greatly unravelled how individuals assess investment opportunities, formulate their portfolios and trade in the market. The insights brought about by behavioural finance are immensely valuable for an improved understanding of the behaviour of aggregate market prices. The behavioural finance approach is key to the understanding of the profitability of arbitrage opportunities in the market. It helps to identify the influence of market irrationality and formulate timely and focused investment and trading strategies. It offers promising directions in the structuring of products and its effective communication to clients. The practical applications which emerge from the recent advances in behavioural finance would be the key focus of the programme.

An Analytical Study on Behavioural Finance And Its Impact on Portfolio Investment Decisions – Evidence: India
2016, Savithribai Phule Pune University

Shabarisha Narayan
Decision-making is a versatile action. Decisions cannot be made in an annulled by relying on the personal resources and complex models, which do not take into consideration the situations. A situation based on decision-making activity encompasses not only the explicit dilemma faced by the individual but also drag out to the environment. The most decisive challenge faced by the investors is in the vicinity of investment decisions. In designing the investment portfolio, the investors should consider their financial and investment goals, risk forbearance level, and other constraints. In addition to that, they have to envisage the output return-risk optimization. This process is better suited for institutional investors; it often fails for individuals, who are vulnerable to heuristic and behavioural biases. The presence of frequently occurring anomalies in conventional economic theory was a big contributor to the configuration of behavioral finance. These ostensible anomalies, and their unrelenting subsistence, directly infringe modern financial and economic theories, which assume rational and logical behaviour. Such a decision-maker would consider all relevant information and come up with the best choice under the situations in a progression known as constrained optimization. The present paper spotlights on Heuristic and Biases Related to Financial Investment and the Role of Behavioural Finance in Investment.

Behavioral finance is an open-minded finance which includes the study of psychology, sociology, and finance. Behavioral finance micro examines behavior or biases of investors and behavioral finance macro describe anomalies in the efficient market. Nowadays, behavioral finance is not a new concept, the existence, and impact of behavioral biases in investor's behavior and human judgment are huge. In this paper, we will review various studies in this area so as to have a clear understanding of the behavioral finance and its significance in the financial decision making of investors.

This study investigates the existence of behavioral biases in Amman Stock Exchange and their effect on investment performance from investor's point of view. In specific, the effects of overconfidence bias, familiarity bias, loss aversion bias, disposition bias, availability bias, representativeness bias, confirmation bias and herding bias are investigated. Moreover, the study inspects whether the behavioral biases differ between males and females. The results show that there is a statistically significant effect of overconfidence bias, familiarity bias, availability bias, representativeness bias and herding bias on investment performance (p≤5%). Moreover, disposition bias, confirmation bias and loss aversion bias significantly affect investment performance but at a critical level of (p≤10%). No statistically significant differences are found between the answers of males and females.

Investor’s irrationality is an inevitable reality that has been time and again highlighted by researchers (Statman, 2008). Therefore, this study is another effort to assess the role of behavioral biases in financial decision making in Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX). A survey questionnaire is designed and used to collect responses using convenience sampling technique from sample of 250 investors of PSX. Behavioral biases include overconfidence, over thinking, herding, cognitive bias, and hindsight effect of investors. Multiple regression models are used to test influence of five behavioral biases on investment decision. The results show that overconfidence, over thinking, herding, cognitive bias, and hindsight effect have significant positive impact on investment decision. Overall results conclude that much change in investment decision is due to behavioral biases. This study will help financial advisors to better advice their clients. The one way to reduce these biases may be education and training of investors.

This paper aims to assess whether there is a behavioral bias of Turkish FDI investors in Ethiopia. Besides, it addresses the influence of firm size, investment duration, target customers and amount of investment on the behavioral variables. In order to do so, a survey was conducted on a sample of Turkish FDI investors in Ethiopia which tries to examine their cognitive psychological factors towards their investment decisions. The survey result was analyzed using factor analysis. The statistical findings confirm that some psychological anomalies such as representativeness, herding, regret aversion and mental accounting have been observed on Turkish FDI investors. The regression analysis shows that amount of investment of the firms significantly and positively affects herding, representativeness, regret aversion and mental accounting behaviors. Furthermore, duration of investment in Ethiopia affects their representativeness and mental accounting behavioral biases of investors positively.
