Asset Management

“Asset allocation constitutes the most important step in portfolio construction, accounting for more than 90% of the variability in portfolio performance over time...”

G.P. Brinson, B.D. Singer, G.L. Bebower: Determinants of Portfolio Performance

“Individuals are more depressed with losses than they are satisfied with equivalent returns...”

2002 Economics Prize Winner Daniel Kahneman

These renowned quotations follow in the footsteps of Harry Markowitz, the grandfather of “efficient portfolios”, who recognised that investors’ requirements evolve around achieving positive investment returns without excessive volatility or risk. Achieving this is the challenge!

Different asset classes such as equities, bonds and cash have different characteristics, meaning that they respond differently to changing economic scenarios. These differences allow for the creation of complementary asset allocation combinations with appropriate risk and return profiles.

Benefits of Expanding the Opportunity Set

By combining assets that vary in response to the forces that drive markets, more efficient portfolios can be created. The introduction of alternative low correlation assets also reduces the risk of very adverse outcomes without reducing expected returns. This significantly improves the robustness of performance, increasing the confidence our clients can have in the potential range of outcomes for their portfolios.
