Asset Allocation is based on the principle that different assets perform differently in different market and economic conditions. Employing an Asset Allocation strategy allows us to balance the risk versus reward across different investment profiles.

Various scientific studies have shown that over 80% of a portfolio’s performance can be attributed through Asset Allocation, with the remaining attributed to security selection.
