Asset Allocation - 1000 Foot Overview
Introduction
Traditional asset allocation is about dividing your assets among shares, bonds, property and cash. The idea is to maximize return for a level of risk, using diversification. We go deeper to explain the underlying nature of each asset classes and propose a more modern framework. The starting point is the three Super Asset Classes:
- Capital assets
- Consumable/Transformable assets
- Store of value assets
We illustrate why the traditional framework has two weaknesses:
- Over allocating to one asset class - Capital Assets
- Ignores an important asset class we see as the fourth asset class - Human capital
