The results showed that demographic factors have an influence which causing specific behavior and tolerance thresholds related to risk, which in turn affect performance and optimization in investment decision making. Investors must also be aware of the existence of behavior finance which is found in the form of behavior or actions caused by psychological factors inherent.
