August 2016, but have fallen since then, so even
with similar levels of volatility, currency

Average monthly asset-return dispersion
Correlation and Dispersion
Dispersion is the cross-sectional standard deviation
of monthly returns for stocks included in each
benchmark
Asset dispersion has increased in many markets,
even with volatility so low
Low correlations, high dispersion and high specific
risk are all theoretically good indicators for stock
pickers, as the reward to picking the right stocks is
higher

Portfolio Risk Overview
Confidential - Copyright © 2017 Axioma
• Multi-asset class risk factor correlations over time• Major factor correlations change as focus shifts from economy to political risk and inflation concerns subside
• Negative correlation between equity and FX (early March)• Focus on US economy
• Non-US equity gains offset by FX movements
• Positive correlation between equity and FX (end of April) • Focus on political events in Europe
• Global equity holdings seemed more correlated, increasing risk contribution
• Positive correlation between stocks and bonds (July)• Inflation concerns subside, while economic outlook remains strong
