Retired, the diversification of my current finances is as follows:
– Cash retention equivalent to one year of income + cash in reserve for investments
– In France: 2 A booklets – Balance of a life insurance policy – 1 single stock line: Air Liquide
For the rest: Monetary diversification EUR US CHF – i.e. 6 lines maximum in each of these currencies by globally diversifying the activities:
Euro: Statoil – Royal Dutch – Sponda – Nieuwe Steen
US: Teva Pharma – Lorillard – Vina Concha – Weight Watcher – Barrick Gold… (up until 2 months ago, analysts thought very highly of it)
CHF: Nestlé Abb – Cantonal Bank of Basel – Coop Bank – Csrlp (this is a diversified real estate fund. Housing – businesses – leisure – health)
