What is smart beta? Transcending the active-passive paradigm For illustrative purposes only. An investor cannot invest directly in an index. Smart beta funds may underperform cap-weighted benchmarks and increase portfolio risk. There is no assurance that an investment strategy will outperform or achieve its investment objectives.

Building bond portfolios Bond ladders stabilize returns over different interest-rate environments The chart below illustrates the hypothetical return over a five-year period that a bond-ladder investor would receive in a base case scenario – and in an environment featuring an immediate sharp interest-rate shock. Effect of interest-rate changes on annualized returns for a hypothetical 1–5 year laddered bond portfolio Rates fall 1%: Following the immediate gain in prices, returns taper off as the ladder purchases lower-yielding bonds each year. Annualized return No change in rates Rates rise 1%: While the pain of rising rates is felt in the first year, the portfolio benefits from higher yields when the shortest-term bucket is reinvested each year. For illustration purposes only. Source: Invesco, 2014. Performance is hypothetical and should not be interpreted as performance of an actual portfolio. Hypothetical bond ladder is equally weighted between five maturity buckets and begins with a yield to maturity of 3.15%. All bonds in the 1-year bucket are removed at annual reconstitution and five new bonds are added. Assumes an immediate increase or decrease in interest rates at the beginning of year 1, then no change thereafter. Aggregate return refers to the sum of the annualized returns over each period. The laddering strategy does not guarantee better performance than a non-laddered strategy and cannot eliminate the risk of investment loss. For advisor use only.
