Equitable Life Active Balanced segregated funds are managed in-house by the Equitable Asset Management Group (EAMG). We offer three portfolios designed for a full range of investors’ preferences that span the risk spectrum. Each portfolio is constructed using the same top-down approach, and is adjusted according to the intended portfolio risk tolerance for each fund. All Active Balanced portfolios are constructed using Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs).
Exchange traded funds are investment vehicles that seek to replicate the performance of broad based indices, sectors and other specific investment strategies. While ETFs have been used for years in the Canadian market, they’re just beginning to take hold with professional and institutional investors alike.
Key benefits of using ETFs include:
- increased transparency,
- improved liquidity,
- lower costs, and
- reduced relative performance risk.
Active Balanced Portfolios and ETFs
