Risk Visibility

Portfolio risk: see concentration, drawdowns and exposure

Risk you can see

Risk tools on Capitallytics emphasize visibility: which holdings dominate value, how allocation skews, and how P&L moved over periods. That is different from claiming VaR engines, options Greeks, or broker-grade risk systems we do not ship.

Use risk views with allocation and analytics pages. AI-assisted summaries explain patterns in your data; they do not manage positions or guarantee outcomes.

The measures behind the risk view

Concentration is each holding's share of portfolio value, computed once and rounded once, so every card shows the same percentage for the same holding. Lots of the same instrument held in different accounts count as one holding.

The diversification score runs from 0 to 100 and is the lower of two checks. The largest asset class scores 100 at 70% of the portfolio or less, falling to 0 at 95%. The largest single holding scores 100 at 45% or less, falling to 0 at 90%. Gold, silver and equity are separate classes, so a gold ETF really does diversify an equity-heavy book.

Where real daily closing prices are available, portfolio analytics also shows beta, Jensen's alpha and the Sharpe ratio against the benchmark for your portfolio currency, NIFTY 50 for rupee portfolios and the S&P 500 for dollar ones. These need at least 60 overlapping daily returns, roughly three trading months; with less history the page says Insufficient history rather than showing a misleading figure.

How to read the numbers

A beta above 1 means the portfolio has tended to move more than the benchmark; below 1, less. A Sharpe ratio compares return above the risk-free rate with the volatility taken to earn it. Both describe the past, not the future.

Concentration is often the risk people notice last. A stock that has done well grows into a large share of the portfolio without any new purchase, and a single bad quarter then matters far more than it used to. Reviewing the largest holding's share each quarter is a simple habit that catches this early.

Example: scoring diversification

Example only, educational information and not investment advice. The investor holds two stocks, an equity index fund, government bonds and a gold ETF across two accounts.

Holdings, asset class and share of portfolio (sample figures, not real data)
HoldingAsset classValue (₹)Share
Stock AEquity8,00,00040.0%
Stock BEquity3,00,00015.0%
Equity index fundEquity4,00,00020.0%
Government bondsFixed income3,00,00015.0%
Gold ETFGold2,00,00010.0%
Total—20,00,000100.0%
  1. Largest asset class: equity is ₹8,00,000 + ₹3,00,000 + ₹4,00,000 = ₹15,00,000, or 75% of ₹20,00,000.
  2. Asset-class score: 75% is 5 points past the 70% line on a 25-point slope to 95%, so the score is 100 × (95 − 75) ÷ (95 − 70) = 80.
  3. Single-holding score: Stock A is 40%, under the 45% line, so it scores 100.
  4. The diversification score is the lower of the two, 80. If Stock A grew to ₹14,00,000 with everything else unchanged, it would be 14 ÷ 26 = 53.8% of the portfolio and equity would be 21 ÷ 26 = 80.8%, pulling the score down to about 57.

The score is a prompt to look closer, not a target to chase. It shows which of the two checks, asset class or single holding, is limiting diversification.

Portfolio Risk FAQ

Short answers on plans, data handling and how this works, before you sign up.

Does Capitallytics calculate Value at Risk (VaR)?
Capitallytics focuses on concentration, allocation, and performance visibility. Do not expect institutional VaR or stress-test suites unless explicitly offered in-product.
Is this investment advice?
No. Risk views are educational analytics only.
Why do I see Insufficient history instead of beta or Sharpe?
These measures need at least 60 overlapping daily returns for your holdings and the benchmark, and enough of the portfolio must have usable price history. Until then the page shows no figure rather than a misleading one.
Which benchmark is used?
The benchmark that matches your portfolio currency: NIFTY 50 for rupee portfolios and the S&P 500 for US dollar portfolios.
