Diversified, Strategic, Low Cost
Frontier has undertaken significant research and analysis to create a globally diversified, low-cost, multi-asset investment solution. Frontier’s MAP Funds provide access to traditional and alternative asset classes in a single fund, with exposure to over 4,000 underlying securities. Inspired by the US endowment funds, who have been leaders in multi-asset class investing for over two decades, Frontier takes a strategic, longer term approach to asset allocation, combined with disciplined rebalancing techniques. Currency risk is minimised through hedging to ensure that investors receive the true returns of each asset class.
Minimising costs within a portfolio generates significant differences in compounded returns over time, so Frontier employs low cost index replication strategies to access each of the asset classes in the most cost efficient manner.
Frontier is unique in its use of leverage rather than different asset class allocations to cater to different risk return profiles. The Conservative Fund (no gearing) and Moderate Fund (100% gearing) share the same policy asset allocations and underlying assets to achieve further cost efficiencies1. Frontier’s innovative approach allows advisors to easily create different blends of the Frontier MAP funds to meet different risk tolerances for investors.
By combining investments across the range of asset classes available, a highly diversified, low volatility portfolio can be achieved, making the Frontier MAP funds an ideal one-stop ‘core’ investment solution.
