Video: Assessing business risks

Simon BrownPower Hour, Video Invest, Webinar and Video


Finding a winning stock for your investment portfolio is more than just understanding the business and fundamentals. An investor also needs to have a firm grasp of the industry’s dynamics in which the investment operates.

In this Power Hour, Simon Brown presents Porter’s Fives Forces that drive industries and highlights the risks. The concept is based on a book by Michael E Porter (How competitive forces shape strategy ) and while it is a management book, Simon has adapted it for investing and successfully used the concept for the last two decades.

Simon also adds one of his own forces, legislative risk.
