HOME BIAS
Home bias refers to the tendency of people to make financial investments in their home country rather than in foreign markets, despite the benefits of diversifying into foreign equities. It is believed that home bias happens because of the difficulties associated with investing in foreign equities including legal restrictions and additional transaction costs.
