Most people think successful investing is about picking the right stocks.
The reality? The world’s biggest investors focus on something else first.
Welcome to Beat the Bank, hosted by Ben Stewart, and proudly brought to you by Venture.
In this episode, Ben sits down with Chris Douglas, Principal at Māpua Wealth. They unpack how institutions like NZ Super Fund, ACC and large iwi build wealth, why asset allocation matters more than stock picking, and what everyday investors can learn from the world’s biggest portfolios.
They also discuss why New Zealand investors often have too much home bias, the rise of private markets and infrastructure investing, and whether Bitcoin has earned its place as a legitimate asset class.
