How do Core portfolios work?
Syfe Core portfolios hold equities, bonds and gold in varying allocations. We use exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to represent each asset class to ensure that each portfolio is broadly diversified across sectors and geographies.
Our portfolio methodology for Syfe Core rests on three guiding principles:
Asset Class Risk Budgeting
Smart Beta
Stable asset allocation

When will Core portfolios be rebalanced?
The Core portfolios will be rebalanced twice a year in April and October in accordance with our asset allocation risk budgeting strategy and optimized exposure to smart beta factors that maximizes the long term risk-adjusted returns for the respective Core portfolios.
Can I have multiple Core portfolios?
Yes, you can create different Core portfolios for your different investing goals. For instance, you may invest in Core Growth for a long-term goal like retirement and choose Core Defensive for a short-term goal such as a house downpayment.
