Abstract

The primary purpose of this study is to explore the demographic (i.e., age, gender, profession, years of trading experience, and region) diversity of the capital market investors those are having investments on ICT companies and those are not. Along with that primary objective, another issue is addressed in this research paper which is portfolio diversification level of the ICT company investors and non-ICT company investors. There is no overall gender divide in IT investment. Older and experienced traders have less attraction toward capitalizing IT companies. Homemakers, private service holders, male students, and businessmen have higher odds in favor of investing in IT companies compared to others.
