Avatar Associates Risk Based ETF Portfolios


Avatar is a  tactical allocator. Unlike strategic managers, who buy & hold regardless of market conditions, we tilt balances away from sectors and countries with excessive risk towards those with favorable value. Unlike market timers, who jump from cash to equities and back, we adjust our baseline equity/fixed income allocations conservatively.  As an example, our five risk-based and nine age-based collective trusts tilt around their baseline equity allocations by 20%.  The result is prudent tactical risk management, without the surprises of market timing.  Avatar portfolios are constructed with 25-35 low fee Exchange Traded Funds.
