Abstract

This dissertation relates to the study of the financial market of Mauritius, which is categorised as "Emerging". Its performance as an exchange system has been assessed with a view to find whether it is operationally efficient. Consequently, two issues in portfolio management have been analysed. In the first instance, the risk reduction effect of increasing portfolio size, based on the simple diversification strategy has been experienced. Secondly, the hypothesis that investment in low P/BV shares on average yields higher returns than investment in high P/BV shares has been tested.
