Multi-asset portfolios
Combination of asset classes for better diversification.
Beginner-friendly explanation
A multi-asset portfolio includes different types of investments: crypto, stocks, bonds, gold, etc. It helps avoid depending on one single market. When one asset falls, another can compensate. Example: You invest 40% in crypto, 30% in stocks, 20% in gold, 10% in cash. You’re better protected if one market crashes.
Intermediate-level insight
Multi-asset portfolios are built to reduce overall risk without sacrificing performance. They mix uncorrelated or complementary assets based on return and stability goals. The “core-satellite” model is common: a stable base (core), and dynamic assets (satellites). Example: Core = global ETFs + bonds; satellites = cryptos and emerging market stocks. The portfolio captures growth while limiting drawdowns.
Advanced perspective
Multi-asset management involves: inter-asset arbitrage based on dynamic correlations, a macroeconomic approach (inflation, rates, geopolitics), cross-hedging (e.g. index options or futures). It allows building antifragile portfolios suited to shifting market regimes. Many institutional funds use this approach to smooth returns. Example: A portfolio combines crypto, inflation-linked bonds, value stocks, and derivatives to hedge against tail risks.
