Building Alternatives Into Your Investment Allocation Strategy

   

Wednesday, October 21, 2020
2:00pm EDT | 1 CPE Credit


This Session Will Focus On The Most Critical Decision An Insurance Company Can Make 
For Their Investment Program: Strategic Asset Allocation. 

The strategic asset allocation (SAA) decision accounts for more than 90% of the investment programs long term returns. 
Most insurance companies are familiar and comfortable with stocks and bonds, however, diversification into sub-classes as well as “alternative” 
investments can provide value to the overall investment program. Improving investment program diversification through the addition of 
low or uncorrelated asset classes will improve risk-adjusted returns
