The Advisor focuses on the following factors with respect to positioning the portfolio:
- Level of the Volatility Surface
- Steepness of the Volatility Surface
- Curvature of the Volatility Surface
- Beta of Portfolio to Spot Volatility
- Excess Capital Remaining in Stressed Market Scenarios
The Advisor believes that risk management is critical to generating long-term wealth-building returns and that expected returns vary over time. Therefore, the Advisor takes a pro-active approach to risk management by varying the portfolio's exposures during different market environments with the goal of reducing drawdowns and capturing favorable risk/return probabilities as they are presented. The Advisor recommends that clients do not try to time the strategy, but instead consider the offered program to be part of a diversified investment portfolio to be held for many years.
