The Moderate Investor
|
The moderate investor is willing
to accept more risk than the conservative investor, but is probably
not willing to accept the short-term downside risk associated
with achieving a long-term return dramatically above the inflation
rate. |
|
Portfolio:
|
Moderate Growth
|
|
Appropriate Time Horizon:
|
Five years or more
|
|
Portfolio Characteristics:
|
Moderate volatility |
| Seeks to have a 75% chance of
achieving a non-negative return over a 1-year time frame and
at least a 95% chance over a 3-year holding period. These constraints
are much looser than for the conservative portfolio, but still
account for moderate short-term loss aversion. |
| Seeks to have at least a 75%
chance of keeping pace with expected inflation over a 3-year
holding period and 90% chance over a 5-year span.* |
| Seeks to achieve
a return that outpaces expected inflation by approximately 6%
over a 20 year holding period. The actual performance of a given
asset allocation model may be greater or less than the projected
return. |
