20 Summary No Need to Re-Orient Allocation as a Result of Brexit Brexit not causing significant reversals in established performance trends. Equities: U.S. equities likely to continue to be favored over international stocks. Emerging markets have performed well relative to developed markets. Domestically: Large and liquid tends to outperform small and illiquid during market dislocations. Value performing well relative to growth YTD, however, investors may seek out the safety of sustainable earnings growers during volatile periods. Stocks exhibiting low volatility tend to perform well over time, and especially so in times of uncertainty. Fixed Income: Credit spreads remain stable; no extreme flight to quality. Global fixed income diversification warranted. Commodities, REITS performing well. Overall, diversification remains essential. 20

22 Diversification Higher returns, lower risk for the long-term Diversification is intended to smooth out unsystematic risk in a portfolio so that the positive performance of some investments will help offset the negative performance of others. We experience this phenomenon every year. Source: Morningstar Direct index returns.

23 Rebalancing Add rebalancing to further improve long-term performance Systematic rebalancing to keep within a chosen long-term asset allocation further helps portfolios reduce volatility and enhance risk-adjusted returns. Rebalancing can potentially bring higher return (approximately 0.4% more 2 ) and lower downside capture of the market as compared to a portfolio that is not consistently rebalanced. In bear markets, investors that rebalanced annually fared better. While they may not have benefited as much in bull markets, the downside protection outweighed this cost. The Impact of Rebalancing 1 (1) Source: Forbes. Chart shows two portfolios over period between 1985 and Both portfolios began with a 60/40 mix of stocks and bonds, using S&P500 for stocks and Barclays Aggregate Bond Index for bonds.
