The pandemic accelerated the shift to digital assets, ESG investing, and risk-averse strategies. Investors are now more focused on resilience, sectoral agility (e.g., healthcare and tech), and long-term sustainability. Portfolio rebalancing has increased toward inflation-protected securities and alternative investments.
The COVID-19 pandemic transformed global investment strategies by increasing focus on risk management, digital technology, and healthcare. Investors shifted toward resilient, diversified portfolios and prioritized ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) factors. There was a surge in tech, biotech, and sustainable investments, while low interest rates pushed investors toward high-yield and alternative assets. Real estate preferences changed, retail investor activity rose, and thematic investing in areas like clean energy and digital health became more popular.
I do agree with Ayodeji that COVID 19 pandemic transformed global investment strategies by increasing focus on risk management, digital technology and healthcare.
