Abstract

Portfolio theory has been widely studied by scholars all over the world since its inception. The analysis and diversification of portfolio risk based on theoretical analysis as well as calculation has been the main research object of many financiers and scientists; the modern portfolio theory they created also takes into full consideration the psychology and thinking of investors. In this paper, based on the analyses and researches of eight papers, the advantages, disadvantages, opportunities and applications of three main principal portfolio risk theories including MPT theory, VaR theory and Expansion financing theory were discussed in this literature review. The results demonstrates that in order to adapt to market changes and the increasing prevalence of investments, portfolio risk theories are needed to keep up with the times and thus help investors to gain more returns. The paper might provide some useful information on the portfolio risk theory and some aids for judgments on investment risk diversification.
