ADVANTAGE LARGE CAP CORE- Risk Management
We construct portfolios to participate in market upside, and protect against the downside. If a candidate has passed the quantitative screen and fundamental analysis, then it is evaluated within the context of the overall portfolio.
  • Constructed within the context of reward to risk
  • Risk model enables lead manager to systematically evaluate overall portfolio’s risk as well as each stock’s contribution to risk
  • Model is designed to facilitate understanding of risks and whether they are intentional
  • Target and realized tracking error of 3%-4%
  • Portfolio constraints help enforce tracking error corridor, while providing latitude to pursue stocks with compelling reward/risk ratios 
    • Index sector weight of less than 5%: 0 to 2.0x index weight
    • Index sector weight of 5% to 10%: 0.5 to 1.5x index weight
    • Index sector weight at or above 10%: 0.8 to 1.2x index weight
    • Up to 3% active weight for individual securities  
  • Indicated to Beat or Miss Tool, based on Time Weighted Revision (TWR) and Standard Unexpected Earnings (SUE), helps to quantify near-term consensus earnings estimates, is used for timing additions to the portfolio, and adds to downside protection and upside capture
