Key Points
- Downside protection in an uncertain world is an important characteristic to have in your portfolio – our survey of registrants found only 17% feel confident about the ability of equity markets to provide positive returns over the next 12 months, with over 30% of allocators looking to increase their exposure to Quality in 2023.
- GMO offers a differentiated approach to Quality investing:
- Value within Quality can enhance return and provide downside protection.
- Style diversification within Quality has benefited our clients, especially in 2022 and 2023 YTD, as can be seen in the chart below.
- This has resulted in top percentile performance over 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods in the eVestment universe. 1
- With almost 20 years of experience managing the flagship Quality strategy, we have applied this successful approach to launch various offerings within the Quality range, the most recent example being US Quality.
