Mutual Fund Portfolios Asset Allocation
Broad diversification, distinctive, independent research and progressive risk management in five core model portfolios that span the risk spectrum.
A range of core choices for every stage of your lifetime
Our investment team creates these diversified portfolios using a research-driven process supported by independent fund analysis from Morningstar, Inc. and regular meetings with fund managers.
Ibbotson Asset Allocation In investing, the essentials matter. That's why we start with research from our affiliate, Ibbotson Associates--a leading authority on asset allocation-- to build our portfolios. Ibbotson Associates have shown that the mix of assets in a portfolio can have a greater impact on investment returns than timing markets or picking stocks. Guided by this research, we use Ibbotson's risk and return forecasts to develop a strategic asset allocation for our portfolios.
Morningstar Data We think our independent approach sets us apart. Once we've determined a portfolio's asset allocation, we sift through thousands of investments to identify those which we think are worthwhile. Our research process is backed by trusted data from our parent company, Morningstar, Inc. From there, we evaluate each potential holding using a proprietary methodology. Only those with our highest conviction make it into your portfolio.
Active Management Because markets are in constant motion, we don't take a `set it and forget it' approach. We're firm believers in active investing, and embrace an independent approach by selecting flexible managers or lesser-known boutique shops--seeking those with the potential to deliver above-average risk-adjusted results over the long term.
Face-to-Face Research Before we invest in a fund, we want to understand the people behind it. We meet one-on-one with fund managers, asking detailed questions to uncover how they make decisions. We look for those who 'eat their own cooking' by investing their own personal savings in the funds they oversee.
Inside Our Investment Process
Each portfolio is created using a continual, five-step process.
