Masterclass: The key to smart(er) ETFs
1 HR
Understand how to build robust portfolios and deliver on objectives with smart beta.
The paradigm shift we've witnessed in markets has prompted investors to reassess their portfolios. Increasingly cost-conscious and demanding transparency, many have also recognised that actively managed funds often underperform their benchmark, despite charging higher fees. This has led to an accelerated acceptance and adoption of smart beta strategies.
Whether it's higher yields or improved risk-adjusted returns, smart beta strategies enable investors to target performance outcomes with lower fees, reduced volatility and improved portfolio diversification.
In this masterclass, our experts explained the rationale for smart beta ETFs, the types of strategies available and how they can be used to construct robust portfolios.
