Modern portfolio theory is a term used in finance and investment. It is a method of measuring the return on an investment by looking at the historical risk and return. Modern portfolio theory is an investment strategy that has been around since the late 1800s. It was created by William Sharpe, who observed that investors were over-optimistic in their assessment of market risk and returns.

Modern portfolio theory is a framework for understanding the nature of work, education, and development over the course of one's life. It is an approach that has been used in many different fields, including education and business. The theory was created by Franco Modigliani in 1958, who was concerned with how people could take advantage of their time to maximize their potential. He argued that there are three factors that influence how much a person can achieve: human capital (the amount of knowledge and skills they have), financial capital (the amount of money they have), social capital (social networks they have).
