Evaluate Portfolios for 4 Macro Outlooks
Gain clarity for your allocation strategy no matter where you stand
Economic data and macro narratives have been driving significant performance differences across asset classes. How you look at the world and where you think the economy will evolve has a sizable impact on your allocation decisions. You probably have a view, but are you seeing a path forward? For greater clarity, our Portfolio Analysis & Consulting Team follows a proprietary methodology called Cyclicality vs. Inflation Analysis. It provides a different perspective on allocation by scoring portfolio exposure to specific asset classes, sectors, and industries that are likely to perform best in specific economic environments.
What Style Boxes Can’t Tell You
Adding exposures that align with your outlook may help build a more resilient portfolio. Conversely, if you have holdings concentrated in a scenario you don’t expect to occur, you may want to consider some reallocation options. This proprietary methodology was developed and vetted by a 10-member Investment Committee at Natixis Investment Managers Solutions. It’s the same institutional-quality analysis applied to the model portfolios it manages on behalf of some of the world’s largest wealth managers.
