Abstract:

The main goal of the following thesis is to assess two individual investment portfolios – real estate and cryptocurrency. As a consequence, the author will draw a conclusion which investment option is more advantageous based on the assessment of ratios and other relevant techniques of evaluating investment options. The author will split the work into two parts – the literature review and the practical part. In the literature review, the author will analyse relevant publications that were developed by scientists in the field of investment and assessment of investment portfolios. In the practical part, the author will perform the main analysis that will consist of NPV, Payback Ratio, Future Value and Rate of Return. Consequently, the author comes to the conclusion that the best investment option between the real estate and crypto assets remains the real estate as it is less volatile, offers high annual cashflows in the form of rent and also has higher net present value with a shorter payback period. However, the author suggests that this investment option requires a huge capital, so investment in crypto currencies is a good option for people not possessing large funds.
