Centrepoint Low Cost Defensive Model

Downloads

Objective

This suits investors with a minimum two-year timeframe or those that seek a portfolio invested predominantly in interest bearing assets, with a small proportion of growth assets. This portfolio also suits investors who give a high priority to the preservation of capital (while understanding loss is still possible) and are therefore willing to accept lower potential investment performance, hence the 85 percent exposure to defensive assets (cash and fixed interest).

Investment Strategy

A low cost diversified portfolio of securities with an average exposure of 15% to growth assets and around 85% to defensive assets. The portfolio is designed for investors seeking relatively stable returns with low potential for capital loss.

Typical Investor

The Low Cost Model Portfolio would be suitable for fee conscious investors seeking a well-diversified portfolio. The Low Cost Model combines passive and smart beta strategies and the risk and return expectation will not substantially deviate from the underlying benchmark.

Model Management Fee

0.18% (ICR)

Value over time

The Centrepoint Research team believe that successfully timing the market is extremely difficult to do and as a result the portfolios remain fully invested at all times, according to a pre-determined asset allocation. Different styles of investment, such as growth and value styles, can perform differently at different points in the market cycle and our belief is that this too is difficult to accurately predict. As a result, the portfolios do not have a bias to one particular investment style and can be thought of as having an “all weather” approach to the market cycle and timing.

Overview

The model is a portfolio of quality managed funds constructed by a highly qualified and experienced team of investment professionals at Centrepoint Alliance who focus their time on manager selection and portfolio construction.

The Centrepoint Research team believes that selected high quality managers can provide unique insights and demonstrate an ability to add more value than the broad markets over the long term.  It is therefore appropriate to include active investment managers in the portfolio and to pay a higher fee load for these strategies. The portfolio’s strategic asset allocation is provided by Morningstar Investment Management using a robust process undertaken by the well-resourced capital markets team.

The portfolio has been developed with a focus on providing protection for your capital and is expected to fall by a lower amount than the broader market in times when the share markets fall. This characteristic of the portfolio is the result of an allocation to a broad range of assets which are expected to perform differently in different market conditions (e.g. shares and bonds) and also results from the types of strategies which are selected within each sector.
