TRADITIONAL – ACTIVE
DI Global Tactical Asset Allocation (DIGTAA)
Delphin Investments uses a proprietary asset allocation model to construct this portfolio from 27 primary asset classes, which include global equities, currencies, real assets (including real estate & commodities), and fixed income.
This process involves developing expected return forecasts for each of the asset classes, combined with thoughtful, cost effective implementation and risk management. Our process seeks to continually maximize expected returns, subject to acceptable levels of volatility.
We assume relative performance among asset classes deviates from equilibrium levels in the short-term, creating opportunities to add alpha by considering relative attractiveness across, and between asset classes.
This strategy invests directly in ETFs, bonds, equity, and equity-related securities in North America, and over-the-counter common, and preferred stocks (including initial public offerings), and globally.
DI U.S. Small-Cap (DISC)
Launched in December 2010, this strategy seeks its objective of long-term growth of capital by investing in a diversified portfolio of 80 to 90 equity securities of small-capitalization companies in the US. This strategy is investment “style agnostic” and seeks to achieve long-term returns that exceed U.S. small-cap market “risk adjusted returns”.
Empirical research and experience have shown that stock selection factors do not earn “average” returns uniformly over time; thus, the macro-economy and investor sentiment are incorporated for flexibility in the process, and to maintain model efficacy as investors’ risk appetite shifts.
Our fundamental stock research focuses on top-ranked names generated by our three quantitative stock selection models (GARP, Dividend, and Momentum/Market Reaction). We expect the strategy’s diversification across styles, GARP, High Dividend, Momentum/Market Reaction, and Value with Catalyst / Fallen-Angels, to generate more stable returns over time than any single traditional approaches.
TRADITIONAL – PASSIVE
