Investment Objective & Strategy
The Corex Core Portfolio seeks to maximize risk-adjusted returns by using the broadest set of asset classes and investment strategies available, which provide both return enhancement and diversification benefits relative to a traditional portfolio of stocks and bonds.
Portfolio Holdings
The Corex Core Portfolio is constructed using a diversified portfolio of asset classes and investment strategies:
| Commodities |
Includes goods such as agricultural products, natural resources, and raw materials. Commodity prices can be sensitive to the economic cycle, exhibit volatility based on supply and demand, and are generally less correlated to stocks and bonds. Portfolio holdings may include: |
| Cryptocurrencies |
Digital assets that work as a medium of exchange across a decentralized public transaction database (“blockchain”). The return potential and volatility of cryptocurrencies can be extremely high. Portfolio holdings may include: |
| Global Public Equities |
Stocks that trade on an exchange, diversified across regions, sectors, and company size (market capitalization) in both developed and emerging markets. Portfolio holdings may include:
|
| Investment Grade Bonds |
Includes bonds that are typically issued by governments and large corporations. These bonds have high credit ratings and are considered relatively safe investments. Portfolio holdings may include: |
| Corporate Credit |
A type of fixed income that typically focuses on corporate bonds and loans. Credit investing carries greater risk than investment grade bonds, but the potential returns are also higher. Portfolio holdings may include: |
| Listed Infrastructure |
Consists of publicly traded companies that are owners and operators of infrastructure assets and capital-intensive, long-lived real assets such as roads, dams, bridges, waterways, railways, communication networks, and electricity systems. Portfolio holdings may include: |
| Real Return Bonds |
Usually issued by governments, these types of bonds provide inflation protection. The principal and coupons are automatically adjusted according to the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Portfolio holdings may include: |
