Modern Portfolio Theory (MPT)

EVOLUTION OF PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT

Modern Portfolio Theory (MPT)

• Foundation of Asset Allocation Studies,* describes the benefits of diversification

• Limitations of the model:– Defines risk only as volatility (standard deviation)Defines risk only as volatility (standard deviation)

– Inputs into model are estimates

– Correlations between assets are held constant in model

• Several additional factors should be monitored and managed including:– Illiquidity

– Leverage

If MPT is used to determine the “optimal” target allocation to meet an expected rate ofIf MPT is used to determine the  optimal  target allocation to meet an expected rate of return, this approach will encourage more risk‐taking when risk premiums are low and less risk‐taking when risk premiums are high (the equivalent of buying high and selling low)

Key Considerations

• Valuation – main criteria we focus on when making a portfolio change.

• Sentiment – measures the pulse of market participants; their level of fear and greed. It comprises the stories that investors tell themselves.

• Fundamentals – raw materials that lead to changes in valuation and sentiment. Fundamentals are what is happening now, which we then compare to the past and use to speculate about the future.

INTEGRATED ASSET ALLOCATION

The evolution of portfolio construction has led to a wide ranging category called “alternatives” to include strategies not easily categorized by traditional conventions

• “Alternative Investments” span every asset class and tell us little of the underlying risks

– Private equity is highly dependent on the public equity markets

– A “hedge fund” is an investment vehicle, not an asset categoryLong/short equity hedge funds invest in equities, both long and short

Credit‐oriented hedge funds invest in fixed income securities

– Private real estate managers and publicly traded REITs both invest in real estate

Old Way New Way

Traditional Alternative Investments

The most important consideration is how the investment is expected to behave

The most important consideration is how the investment is expected to behave, not its legal structure.
