Advisers are encouraged to include behavioral factors in their clients\u2019 portfolios. This tends to improve adviser-client relationships. In addition, the inclusion of behavioral factors in clients’ portfolios yields portfolios that are closer to the efficient frontier. The following models help explain investor behavior and biases.<\/p>\n

Behavioral Models<\/h2>\n

Barnewall Two-way Behavioral Model<\/strong> \u2013 Perhaps, this is the simplest of the three models discussed in this reading. The two-way model classifies investors into one of two categories:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Active investors.<\/li>\n
  2. Passive investors.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    According to this model, active investors risk their capital to gain wealth. For instance, an active investor could start and sell a business. On the other hand, passive investors accumulate their wealth through small, consistent gains. For example, passive investors can sustain their investment through long and steady employment. Absent other factors to look at, the model explains that active investors are likely more tolerant of risk since they have previously shown a predilection for taking on financial risk. On the other hand, passive investors tend to prefer safer and slower methods.<\/p>\n

    The Bailard<\/strong>, Biehl<\/strong>, and Kaiser (BB&K) Five-Way Model<\/strong> \u2013 An advancement of the Barnewall two-way model, the BB&K model adds a few extra categories into which investors may be classified. The model uses a vertical axis on which it measures the degree of confidence versus the degree of anxiousness and a horizontal axis on which it measures careful versus impetuous decision-making.<\/p>\n

    \"Categories<\/h4>\n

    Pompian Behavioral Model<\/h4>\n

    Like the BB&K Model, the Pompian model has a total of four investor categories known as behavioral investor types. The recommended procedure for classifying investors into one of the four behavioral types involves a four-step process:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Active vs. Passive: Interview the client to determine whether they are active or passive.<\/li>\n
    2. Plot risk tolerance on a graph.<\/li>\n
    3. Test for behavioral biases.<\/li>\n
    4. Categorize each investor.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Behavioral Investor Types<\/h2>\n

      Passive Preserver (PP)<\/h3>\n

      Passive Preserver (PP) mainly displays emotional biases and tends to have a low-risk tolerance. Other characteristics of PPs are outlined below:<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. PPs are not financially sophisticated; their primary focus is family and security.<\/li>\n
      2. They mostly acquire their wealth through inheritance and high compensation at work.<\/li>\n
      3. They put emphasis on preserving wealth rather than growing it and had rather avoid risks altogether.<\/li>\n
      4. It is typical for investors to become passive preservers as their wealth and age increase.<\/li>\n
      5. PPs may also show cognitive biases, including anchoring and adjustment, and mental accounting.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Advising Passive Preservers<\/h4>\n

        PPs are difficult to advise since emotional biases drive them. Advisers should focus on the big picture and avoid quantitative details on Sharpe ratios and standard deviations. Additionally, the advice should lean more on the impact of the investment decisions on the emotional aspects of the investor\u2019s life, e.g., lifestyle, heirs, etc. Finally, although PPs take time to trust their advisers, they greatly value professional expertise once trust is gained.<\/p>\n

        Friendly Follower (FF)<\/h3>\n

        A friendly Follower has likely accumulated wealth passively and has a low to medium risk tolerance level. The characteristics of FFs are as follows:<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. FFs take advice from their friends, colleagues, and advisers when making investment decisions.<\/li>\n
        2. They want to be involved in the recent trends \u2013 the most popular investments regardless of the prevailing market conditions.<\/li>\n
        3. They overestimate their risk tolerance, and advisers should avoid suggesting very many attractive ideas.<\/li>\n
        4. FFs fear missing out, and many end up taking unnecessary investments.<\/li>\n
        5. They do not enjoy the investment process but are financially literate and take up advice.<\/li>\n
        6. The primary bias FFs suffer is cognitive bias, e.g., availability, hindsight, and framing.<\/li>\n
        7. They also suffer regret aversion bias.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Advising Friendly Followers<\/h4>\n

          Friendly followers are difficult to advise since they tend to overestimate their risk tolerance. Advisers must be careful with FFs since they are likely to say yes to advice that makes sense to them, only to regret it later. FFs should be advised on the importance of diversification. Additionally, they should be educated to better understand the implications of investment choices. Lastly, FFs stick to long-term investment plans after they establish loyalty with advisers over time.<\/p>\n

          Independent Individualist (II)<\/h3>\n

          This investor is an active accumulator of wealth with medium to high-risk tolerance and tends to be contrarian. They are characterized by the following:<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. They have an independent mindset and are strong-willed.<\/li>\n
          2. They trust their gut feelings when making investment decisions.<\/li>\n
          3. They undertake their own research and act on the information available to them rather than rely on other sources.<\/li>\n
          4. They often resist following a financial plan, are comfortable taking risks and enjoy investing.<\/li>\n
          5. They can make investment decisions without seeking any advice.<\/li>\n
          6. They are rigid and can hold on to investments despite changing market conditions.<\/li>\n
          7. They primarily suffer cognitive biases, including conservatism, availability, confirmation, and representativeness biases.<\/li>\n
          8. They suffer emotional biases, including overconfidence and self-attribution biases.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Advising Independent Individualists<\/h4>\n

            Independent individualists are difficult to advise since they are liberal thinkers. Moreover, they are not aware that they are contrarian. However, they listen to sound advice and respond well to education on relevant investment concepts.<\/p>\n

            Active Accumulator (AA)<\/h3>\n

            Active accumulators are entrepreneurs who have risked their own capital to build wealth and have a high-risk tolerance. AAs are the most aggressive among the four types of investors and like being hands-on with investment decisions. Other features of AAs include:<\/p>\n

              \n
            1. They do not follow investment guidelines of diversification and asset allocation.<\/li>\n
            2. They have high portfolio turnover rates.<\/li>\n
            3. AAs are overconfident in their investments due to their optimism.<\/li>\n
            4. They are fast at making decisions and tend to go after higher-risk investments than those suggested by their friends.<\/li>\n
            5. AAs primarily suffer emotional biases, including overconfidence and self-control deficit.<\/li>\n
            6. They also suffer from the illusion of control bias.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              Advising Active Accumulators<\/h4>\n

              Active accumulators are probably the most difficult clients to advise. They lack self-control and need to be monitored for excessive spending. Therefore, advisers need to take control of the investment process. They must demonstrate to AAs that they can help them to make wise, objective, and long-term decisions.<\/p>\n

              The following table summarizes the four behavioral investor types discussed above:<\/p>\n

              $$ \\begin{array}{c|c|c|c|c} {\\textbf{Investor}} & {\\textbf{Active\/} } & {\\textbf{Risk} } & {\\textbf{Investment} } & {\\textbf{Primary} } \\\\ \\textbf{Type} & \\textbf{Passive} & \\textbf{Tolerance} & \\textbf{Style} & \\textbf{Bias} \\\\ \\hline {\\text{Passive} } & \\text{Passive} & \\text{Low} & \\text{Conservative} & \\text{Emotional} \\\\ \\text{Preserver} & & & & \\\\ \\hline {\\text{Friendly} } & \\text{Passive} & {\\text{Low-}} & \\text{Conservative} & \\text{Cognitive} \\\\ \\text{Follower} & & \\text{Moderate} & & \\\\ \\hline {\\text{Independent} } & \\text{Active} & {\\text{Moderate-} } & \\text{Aggressive} & \\text{Cognitive} \\\\ \\text{Individualist} & & \\text{High} & & \\\\ \\hline {\\text{Active} } & \\text{Active} & \\text{High} & \\text{Aggressive} & \\text{Emotional} \\\\ \\text{Accumulator} & & & & \\\\ \\end{array} $$<\/p>\n

              Limitations on Classifying Investors into Behavioral Types<\/h3>\n

              Classifying investors can help financial professionals better understand and serve their client\u2019s needs. Nevertheless, it is important to remember that some of the traits discussed previously are not always static. Individuals may exhibit behaviors from multiple classifications, precluding the ability to fit them neatly into a box. Furthermore, these behaviors can change throughout an individual\u2019s life and depending on their current circumstances. While we can look at behavioral models to help explain what we see, we must realize they are not applicable 100% of the time and in every situation.<\/p>\n

              \n

              Question<\/h2>\n

              An investor with a low-risk tolerance, a preference for a conservative portfolio, and one who exhibits mainly cognitive biases would most likely be classified as:<\/p>\n

                \n
              1. Independent individualist.<\/li>\n
              2. Friendly follower.<\/li>\n
              3. Active accumulator.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                Solution<\/h4>\n

                The correct answer is B<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

                A friendly follower has likely accumulated wealth passively and has a low to medium risk tolerance level. This investor primarily suffers cognitive biases, e.g., availability, hindsight, and framing.<\/p>\n

                A is incorrect<\/strong>: An independent investor is an active accumulator of wealth with medium to high-risk tolerance and tends to be contrarian. This investor mainly suffers cognitive biases as well, including conservatism, availability, confirmation, and representativeness biases.<\/p>\n

                C is incorrect<\/strong>: Active accumulators are entrepreneurs who have risked their own capital to build wealth and have a high-risk tolerance. The investment style is aggressive, and they are mostly exposed to emotional biases, including overconfidence and self-control.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
