The ETF Portfolio Strategist: 12 September 2021

Proprietary Strategies

Our proprietary strategies lost ground in line with the Global Beta 16 (G.B16) benchmark last week. Year to date, the benchmark is still in the lead, but by a narrowing margin — a mere 20 basis points over this year’s top-performing prop strategy — Global Managed Volatility, which is up 9.2% in 2021 vs. 9.4% for G.B16 through Friday’s close (Sep. 10).
