Portfolio Concentration — What Is It?
The share of the largest positions in the entire portfolio.
Explanation
It is usually expressed as the share of the largest position and the sum of the top five. Concentration is not an error in itself — it is a conscious choice, as long as one is aware of having it.
The most common case is unintentional: one position grows for two years and quietly becomes half of the portfolio. The overall result then depends on a single company, even though no one made such a decision.
Example
A portfolio of 18 companies, where one accounts for 42%, is in practice a single-company portfolio with seventeen additions.
