Multi-Asset Diversified Strategies

Multi-asset strategy: Strategies that aim to achieve growth and a stable income potential together with diversification benefits

Multi assets asset class outlook

Asset allocation that actively seeks to maximise income and growth

Regions, sectors, and asset classes can all perform and correlate differently from one another under different markets conditions. A well-balanced multi-asset portfolio can help you navigate through market cycles and effectively grasp valuable investment opportunities.

Strategic investment that targets long-term growth

Current market dislocations are creating an attractive environment for strategic and tactical allocations that aim to maximise income and growth opportunities. Strategic asset allocation serves as a solid foundation, focusing on the expected long-term returns across a broad range of asset classes. Tactical asset allocation, on the other hand, seeks to capitalise on short-term market dynamics. 

Our proprietary strategic, tactical, asset allocation and rebalancing strategy aims to provide income and the potential for capital appreciation by tapping into a broad opportunity set of asset classes.

Seeking high, stable income through multiple traditional and non-traditional income sources

To cope with the economic challenges of COVID-19 pandemic, global central banks have provided significant amounts of stimulus to economies and liquidity to capital markets. Negative-yielding debt has become prevalent amidst the lower-for-longer interest rate environment. We believe income-oriented asset classes, such as higher-yielding and income-generating securities, should remain attractive to investors and therefore remain well bid.


A growing portion of the global fixed-income market is negative-yielding (trillion US dollar)2

The strategy aims to adopt a differentiated approach of achieving yield, minimising reliance on equity appreciation – primarily seeking yield from fixed income and an option writing strategy.

The option writing strategy generates premiums and aids drawdown management for a better downside-capture profile.

 


Traditional and non-traditional income sources tend to be less correlated3

Despite their high directional correlations with markets, complementing call and put writing strategies, between themselves, offer uncorrelated income sources4.
