Activity during the month
During the month we made some changes to the Diversified Property & Infrastructure Portfolio with the objective of reducing transactional costs within the portfolio while also maintaining an asset allocation that ensures we deliver returns in line with our benchmark. Read more..

Building portfolios with ETFs
We released our first quarterly ETF report during the month. ETFs are the basis of a range of InvestSMART’s Separately Managed Account portfolios and the purpose of this report is to provide our clients with an easy to digest wrap of market activity as well as a greater level of insight into how and why we’ve built our SMA portfolios the way we have.
ETFs are a low-cost, hassle-free way for investors to achieve their investment objectives. Whether your aim is to diversify your portfolio or to obtain exposure to a particular asset class or investment theme, the ability to buy ETFs directly on market, their low cost and transparency has seen the popularity of these securities amongst investors grow rapidly.
