Alpha SMA
Alpha’s Separately Managed Accounts (SMAs) are actively managed diversified portfolios invested across growth assets (such as Australian and international equities, property, infrastructure) and defensive income-oriented assets (such as cash, fixed interest).
They are actively managed to take advantage of opportunities when they present and respond to changes in market conditions which allow them to make timely transactions for improved portfolio efficiency.
SMAs provide a more effective and efficient way to invest your superannuation and other funds to help achieve your financial goals, taking in to account your investment timeframe and preferred level of risk.
The asset allocation within your portfolio is dynamically adjusted within certain ranges and as required, based on market conditions and forecasts for the asset class performance.
Investors have a direct or beneficial ownership of individual investments within their portfolios, whether they are direct securities or units in a managed fund.
Importantly, performances is necessarily impacted by trading costs and management fees, along with tax outcomes for investors. The impact of all fees and charges are considered in the management of the portfolio.
Alpha SMAs are specifically designed to:
