Alternatives
Invesco Balanced-Risk Commodity
An actively managed strategy that targets return sources that are unique to the asset class through broad and liquid direct commodity exposure
Inflation protection
Commodities may help mitigate the detrimental effects of an unexpected rise in inflation.
Portfolio diversification
Offers diversification benefits to a portfolio of financial assets.
Active, benchmark-agnostic allocation
Seeks higher expected return per unit of risk and reduced drawdowns compared to passively managed funds.
Why this strategy
Passive commodity exposures typically minimize or ignore sources of return unique to commodities, resulting in sub-optimally managed portfolios. Through multiple structural and tactical sources of commodity returns, the strategy provides the ability to outperform passive benchmarks in both up and down markets.
How we do it
This strategy pursues strategic returns through term structure weighting and equal risk contribution, while tactical shifts (directional and relative) and optimal contract selection help match the overall portfolio to the prevailing environment. The entire portfolio is implemented through a systematic, rules-based process that is measurable and repeatable.
