5 Primary Attributes OCIO ETF
Global Asset Allocation
Portfolio diversification across seven major global asset classes in a single ETF
Rules-Based Process Optimized for Behavioral Finance
Systematic investing process that we believe answers all questions about what, when, and how much to buy and sell –repeatable rules that maintain discipline during prolonged market volatility by leaving no room for emotional decision-making amidst euphoria or fear
Dynamic Adjustments in Response to Market Changes
Asset allocation naturally adapts to market conditions – portfolio can look quite different depending on the environment (e.g., when there are uptrends/downtrends in an asset class, interest rates change, volatility arises, or inflation/deflation occurs)
Focus on Managing Downside Risk
Constructed to manage risk during bear markets and periods of severe drawdowns (like 2022 and the Coronacrash of March 2020), but doesn’t need to go completely “risk off” amidst less significant pullbacks (especially those that affect only select asset classes, not the whole financial system)
Tax-Aware Portfolio Management
Within the ETF wrapper, decision making is diversified across a blend of timeframes, which generally allows short-term losses to be harvested and gains to be held as long as uptrends persist
