Multi-manager strategies best in 2010
Investing in diversified multi-manager strategies will be the best way to secure attractive risk-adjusted returns in the Australian equities market in 2010, according to Russell Investments.
In its paper Continued innovation in Australian equity multi-manager portfolios, Russell outlines recent developments in its multi-manager approach for Australian shares.
The paper explains Russell’s recently implemented strategies for enhancing active returns and reducing stock turnover and trading costs for investors.
According to Russell, its Select Holdings Fund has provided investors with an annualised return 2.8 per cent above the benchmark over three years to October 2009.
The paper also marks a new model-driven investment strategy for Australian shares called Enhanced Insights, which is a variation of Russell’s Select Holdings Fund.
