Model Portfolios

Backed by Quantitative Research Framework

Portfolios are designed to deliver better client outcomes with increased consistency. Our investment philosophy focuses on disciplined asset allocation and prioritizes risk-adjusted returns.

Investment Philosophy
Repeatable Quantitative Process

Our investment approach is centered around evidence-based investing. Instead of basing decisions on near-term trends or “expert” opinions, our team focuses on historical data, leading indicators, and statistical probabilities to guide core asset allocation ratings and tactical idea generation. This quantitative overlay rewards facts, not opinions.


Disciplined Investment Process – Consistent, repeatable framework

 Active Risk Management – Focused on minimizing portfolio volatility
 
Long-term Perspective – Risk-adjusted returns across market cycles

Leading Indicators
Simplifying Asset Allocation

A leading indicator is an economic factor or variable that tends to change before the overall economy. Our team uses leading indicators to forecast broader shifts in the economy and market before they occur. The Quant Pack Report houses 20+ proprietary indicators MarketDesk has developed to guide asset allocation decisions.
