Corex utilizes a combination of broad (macro-level) and specific (micro-level) investment strategies to construct your portfolio, ensuring that it aligns with your financial goals and risk tolerance.
Top-Down Investment Strategy
Corex's top-down strategy begins with determining the optimal asset allocation for your portfolio. This approach focuses on the major drivers of portfolio returns and diversifies your investments across a variety of asset classes, which may include both public and private markets. The goal is to balance risk and return by investing in different types of assets based on your risk profile.
Since certain asset classes (like equities) tend to carry more risk than others (such as fixed income investments), Corex ensures that your asset allocation aligns with your risk tolerance. By carefully selecting asset classes that fit your desired risk level, Corex seeks to maximize returns within the bounds of your specified risk parameters.
Bottom-Up Investment Strategy
The bottom-up strategy focuses on security selection—investing in specific companies or assets that are expected to outperform the broader market. Corex carefully evaluates individual investment opportunities to ensure they contribute to the overall strategy and portfolio performance.
Active Investment Management
Where applicable, Corex uses active strategies to manage your portfolio. These strategies may involve:
- In-depth research, including both fundamental and quantitative analysis, to identify opportunities.
- Leverage and short-selling strategies, when deemed appropriate, to optimize returns within specific asset classes.
Please note that for Manzil Invest clients, short-selling and leverage is Haram. Therefore, this strategy does not apply and is not applicable to your investment goals/ethics. All funds held in the Halal Portfolio are listed and none use short-selling or leverage.
Risk and Compliance Considerations
- Risk Alignment: Your Corex portfolio’s asset allocation is tailored to ensure it is aligned with your risk tolerance, which is assessed based on the information you provided.
- Compliance: All investment strategies and selections adhere to Shariah compliance, ensuring that investments meet the principles outlined by the Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI).
For a full breakdown of the potential risks and rewards associated with your portfolio's asset allocation or security selection, we recommend reviewing your investment policy statement (IPS) and consulting with a financial advisor. You can always reach out to Corex support for assistance in adjusting your portfolio to better suit your objectives.
