Program Overview

Most investment advisors have been taught the principles of managing portfolios using traditional buy-and-hold techniques based on Modern Portfolio Theory, yet in reality — based on the guidance of Harry Markowitz himself — tactical asset allocation can simply be a natural extension to better implement MPT properly. This session will explore the theoretical challenges of buy-and-hold, how MPT actually leads to tactical asset allocation, practical approaches used to implement tactical portfolios, and the challenges faced by those who adopt tactical asset allocation.

Attendees will learn:

  • Why Tactical Asset Allocation is controversial
  • Why Buy-And-Hold Strategies have struggled under Modern Portfolio Theory
  • How Tactical Asset Allocation is supported by Modern Portfolio Theory
  • Basic building blocks for doing Tactical Asset Allocation
