Active or Index? Rethinking How You Invest in Equities | Beyond the Numbers | Webinar No. 31

Active or Index? Rethinking How You Invest in Equities As more investors enter Pakistan’s equity market, an important question comes into focus: should you try to beat the market, or simply invest in the market? In Episode 31 of Beyond the Numbers, Hassan Raza, Head of Product Structuring at JS Investments, takes a data-led look at active and index investing, examining how the two approaches differ and what investors should consider before choosing between them. The session explores the role of costs, portfolio turnover, diversification, risk, taxes and investor behaviour in shaping long-term outcomes. It also looks at global evidence on active versus passive investing and compares Pakistani equity fund performance with the KSE-100 across different periods. Whether you actively follow the market or are looking for a more structured way to invest in equities, this session provides a practical framework for understanding the choices available. ▶️ Watch Now #JSInvestments #BeyondTheNumbers #ActiveInvesting #IndexInvesting #PassiveInvesting #EquityInvesting #KSE100 #PakistanStockExchange #PSX #ETFs #MutualFunds #InvestmentEducation #InvestingInPakistan #PortfolioManagement #WealthManagemen Founded in 1995, JS Investments Limited (JSIL) is the oldest and one of the largest private sector asset management companies in Pakistan.
