Portfolio information

Research

The Adaptive Asset Allocation portfolio is based on decades of research on the construction of efficient portfolios and on extensive back testing and modeling. It builds on the principles of risk parity and the permanent portfolio with a goal of generating superior risk-adjusted returns.

Approach

The portfolio manager seeks to profit from a dynamic, rules-based asset allocation that adapts to changing market conditions. Using the principles of risk parity and the "permanent portfolio," the strategy encompasses the major investable asset classes, including large and mid-cap U.S. equities, fixed income, real estate and gold. The portfolio is rebalanced based on market and asset-class-specific volatility, changing correlations between asset classes, and relative performance and weightings of the respective asset classes. The manager may additionally incorporate a proprietary market risk model to manage market exposure and further reduce risk. The strategy is generally implemented via liquid, traded ETFs, though excess liquidity may be invested in U.S. Treasuries or other investment-grade-rated fixed-income securities.

Sell discipline

Rebalancing is a critical aspect of the strategy. The portfolio will be rebalanced at a minimum annually and will be rebalanced more frequently when asset classes drift outside of our tolerance bands. Outside of regular rebalancing, securities may be sold or replaced when a superior security covering the same asset class is found or if, due to our risk management process, we make a tactical decision to exit an asset class.

Exceptions

We do not expect to make exceptions to our investment process or rebalancing discipline, though we understand that all models should be regularly reviewed for improvement. Risk management is only effective when it is actually followed.
