In our last post on Model Portfolios*, we considered looking at Global Equities through the lens of Factors – Momentum, Min Volatility, Value, Quality and Size.This allowed us to achieve diversification, while Dynamic allocation between the factors allowed us to achieve a superior risk return profile – primarily through the ability to use cash to protect the downside in times of low conviction.In this note, we look at how we can construct a different Global Equity Model Portfolio using the same process of Conviction Scores and Dynamic Allocation, but looking instead at a diversified portfolio through the lens of ‘Global Themes’.
