2 Asset Allocation Portfolios What are the They are strategic and tactical asset allocation portfolios that are diversified across asset classes and investment styles, incorporate both passive and actively managed investments and are managed on a discretionary basis. What is Strategic Asset Allocation? It is the long-term investment weightings for the major investment classes that both seek to fit an investor s risk profile and also take into account possible asset returns and volatility under varying economic and financial conditions. The Importance of Asset Allocation Modern theory on portfolio diversification states that appropriate asset allocation the process of distributing assets across different investment instruments and asset classes can create portfolios that produce the highest potential returns for a given level of expected risk, as measured by the volatility, or fluctuation, of portfolio value over time. What is Tactical Asset Allocation? Incorporates active decisions to overweight or to underweight asset classes in the near term relative to their strategic allocation based on: (i) the current and projected financial and economic environment; (ii) evaluations of risk in global asset markets; and (iii) other fundamental, valuation and psychological, technical and/or liquidity factors. What is the Investment Process for the The portfolios employ a dynamic asset allocation process that combines long-term investment strategies (strategic asset allocation) with short-term portfolio adjustments (tactical asset allocation). Active vs. Passive An important consideration when determining investment selection is the choice between active and passive investments either for individual asset allocations or for the portfolio as a whole. Changing market cycles, the investor s time horizon and the volatility, liquidity and efficiency of individual asset classes can all affect the decision whether to choose active or passive investments for your portfolio. morgan stanley 2

3 Asset Allocation Portfolios (continued) Active Management An actively managed portfolio relies on the expertise of a portfolio manager to choose the investment s holdings in an attempt to outperform a predetermined benchmark over the course of a full market cycle. Most mutual funds are actively managed. Passive Management A passively managed investment is typically designed to mimic a benchmark in an attempt to match the benchmark s returns before expenses, not exceed them. Most exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are considered passively managed investments. Which Asset Classes are Included in the Cash/cash equivalents, fixed-income, US equity, international equity and alternative investments. What is the Security Selection Process for the Eligible securities go through an in-depth research and evaluation process; key evaluation criteria can include investment strategy, track record, manager tenure and experience, expense ratios, tracking error, style purity, liquidity and relative strength rankings, amongst other factors.
