| Summary |
This book provides a comprehensive and critical analysis of research outcomes on the equity home bias puzzle - that people overinvest in domestic stocks relative to the theoretically optimal investment portfolio. It introduces place attachment - the bonding that occurs between individuals and their meaningful environments - as a new explanation for equity home bias, and presents a philosophically multi-paradigmatic view of place attachment. For the first time, a comprehensive and up-to-date review of the extant literature is provided, demonstrating that place attachment is a contributing factor to 22 different topics in which variations of home bias are present. The author also analyses thesocial-psychological underpinnings of place attachment, and considers the effect of multi-culturalism on the future of equity home bias. The book's unique approach discusses the issues in conceptual terms rather than through data and statistical methods. This multi- and inter-disciplinary book is an invaluable resource for graduate students and researchers interested in economics, finance, philosophy, and/or methodology, introducing them to a new line of research |
