Smoothing Out the Ride – Examining the Evolving World of Asset Allocation and Guaranteed Income
Effectively managing risk has become a top priority as the failures and strengths of asset allocation strategies over the past year are evaluated. Longheld asset allocation theories and philosophies are being questioned as a result of recent failures and shortcomings. This study will explore the asset allocation changes and debates taking place in the broad market, but will focus specifically on the impact of asset allocation programs within variable annuity contracts. Areas to be analyzed include short- and long-term asset allocation changes, impact of changes to various asset classes, how risk is accounted for across different models, and how guarantees impact asset allocations and vice-versa.
