What is Economic Regime-based Asset Allocation?

Economic Regime Asset Allocation

An economic regime is the state of the economy, and macroeconomic data is what tells us what regime we're in.
LOW INFLATION
HIGH INFLATION
NEGATIVE GROWTH
POSITIVE GROWTH
All-Weather
Good times
Inflationary growth
Recession
Stagflation
The 4 economic regimes
We define economic regimes by distinct relationships between growth and inflation.

Economic Regime Asset Allocation
Asset classes behave differently depending on the economic regime. ERAA® will change your portfolio’s asset allocation to prepare for the current or upcoming regime while maintaining your risk preferences.

We call this change to your asset allocation “Re-optimisation”.
Re-optimisation is triggered by one of three events:
  • An economic regime change
  • Uncertain economic conditions flagged by our Risk Shield
  • A change in valuation of an asset class

Frequently Asked Questions

A single return figure (Time-Weighted Returns vs Money-Weighted Returns) does not tell the whole story of how well a portfolio performs.

Returns are one thing but the level of risk exposure your portfolio has in achieving those returns is an entirely different matter. 

Remember to consider how much risk your portfolio manager exposes your money to in the name of getting your returns.

StashAway chooses the best-in-class ETFs on your behalf. We chose the largest, most liquid, most tradable, and most cost-effective ETFs with the lowest tracking error to the index and a sufficiently long track record. 

We choose simple ETFs, which means they have no leverage or complex payoffs and have no ETNs to avoid credit risk of issuers. 

You can read more about our ETF selection criteria here and the list of funds that we use here.
