Current market dislocations are creating an attractive environment for strategic and tactical allocations that aim to maximise income and growth opportunities. Strategic asset allocation serves as a solid foundation, focusing on the expected long-term returns across a broad range of asset classes. Tactical asset allocation, on the other hand, seeks to capitalise on short-term market dynamics.
Our proprietary strategic, tactical, asset allocation and rebalancing strategy aims to provide income and the potential for capital appreciation by tapping into a broad opportunity set of asset classes. In addition, it offers a one-stop-shop solution that combines Manulife’s asset-allocation expertise with a selection of high-quality managers.
