Dynamic Asset Allocation
While the emphasis on top down versus bottom up might vary across portfolios, the portfolio construction is of paramount importance. Combining strategies and managers leads to an appropriately diversified portfolio. We look for the best managers and investment opportunities around the world – taking into account expected and historic returns as well as market volatility.
Advanced Portfolio Analytics
Our portfolio analysis contains cross-correlation on a line-by-line basis to assess the marginal risk contribution of each portfolio holding. Our investment process involves establishing a solid foundation to aid in identifying assets with appealing valuations. This process coupled with in-depth macro research seeks to generate consistent alpha with below-market volatility.
Active Manager Selection
There are very few managers who consistently add value over time. They can be part of leading institutions or small boutiques. We are committed to go the extra mile to find and get meaningful access to the best of them. We employ industry standard processes, but also draw on the resources available within the Loizou & Co’s extensive network.
Intensive Risk Management
Maintaining and enhancing our clients’ wealth involves first avoiding losses before striving towards returns. We minimise risks by actively analysing the valuations and look to invest in assets with meaningful expected returns. We look to diminish the influence of factor or systematic risks.
Rebalancing Strategies
Our rebalancing services include investment tactics, such as Corridor Ranges, Constant-Proportion Portfolio Insurance and Calendar Rebalancing. Our investment professionals tactically rebalance the portfolios to safeguard the investor from being overly exposed to undesirable risks and assure that the manager remain within his area of expertise.
We assist in providing access to debt (bond) and cap (equity) weighted portfolios, bespoke to each investor’s goals. Our investment management professionals employ risk-based weighting when producing practical strategies which are employed across all asset classes, including fixed income, commodities and equity.
Active Tactics
We offer active alternatives to conventional “cap-weighted” or “debt-weighted” portfolios, which can also be customised to meet each client’s objectives. Our modus operandi uses risk contribution as the input in the model that define weights, whereas market cap weighting uses size as the input to determine weights and employs risk contribution as a random consequence.
