Rééquilibrer son portefeuille vers des actifs mondiaux pour réduire le risque de change
I was thinking back to when I was a kid and everyone going on holiday to florida would talk about getting 2 usd per £1. Looking on Google, I see it's a long time since it was any where near that and there's a definite past trend, but I can't help but wonder, what about if in a decade or 2 it's at $1.50 per gbp, or worse. What's the most reasonable way we can mitigate some of this currency risk? Thanks Edit :just to be clear, this is a question about pensions/sipps, not about holidays!ty
