Traditional invertir organizes the world by sectors: tecnología, salud, financials, energía, consumer staples. Thematic invertir takes a different approach. Instead of grouping inversiones by industry classification, it groups them by the underlying economic force that drives their value.

A theme like inteligencia artificial cuts across multiple traditional sectors. It includes semiconductor companies, cloud providers, software firms, salud diagnostics, and autonomous vehicle manufacturers. By invertir in the theme rather than any single sector, you capture a broader set of opportunities tied to the same structural trend.

This distinction matters because fuerzas económicas do not respect sector boundaries. The most powerful oportunidades de inversión often emerge at the intersection of multiple sectors, where inversión temática provides natural exposure and traditional sector asignación does not.

A company classified as energía may be primarily a tecnología infrastructure provider. Sector labels often obscure the true motores económicos of a business.
