ABL Asset Allocation vs. Strategic Asset Allocation


ABL asset allocation utilizes a proactive, more tactical approach to capitalize on overvalued & undervalued segments of the global markets.  Typically a range of percentage allocation is coordinated based on goals, objectives and risk tolerance.  The portfolio is then adjusted based on taking advantage of overvalued areas by profit taking and redeploying assets into more lower risk, undervalued areas for the long term.

Strategic asset allocation rebalances on a regular and systematic basis to avoid improper composition of assets.  This more passive approach reduces risk over time by avoiding too heavy a concentration in outperforming segments.  If investors pay 1% or more for such an automated passive approach, they are significantly offsetting the main long term benefits to this approach.

Target Asset Mix
This portfolio is also initlally targeted at 60% stocks, 30% bonds, and 10% cash.  When the Portfolio Strategist believes the market is fairly valued, 60% is invested in stocks.
