Study Notes
- A diversified investment strategy for a client with a medium risk tolerance, a 10-year investment horizon, and an interest in the agricultural sector is outlined below
Asset Allocation
- Equities: 40% allocated to agricultural companies involved in farming, food processing, and agricultural technology; could include stocks of companies such as Deere & Company or Archer Daniels Midland
- Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs): 20% allocated to REITs specializing in agricultural land or facilities, which provides exposure to the agricultural sector and offers potential income through dividends.
- Bonds: 30% allocated to corporate bonds from stable agricultural companies, which provides fixed income and reduces overall portfolio volatility.
- Commodities: 10% allocated to agricultural commodities like corn, wheat, or soybeans through ETFs, which adds inflation protection and diversification.
Expected Return Profile
- Aims for moderate growth, with equities potentially offering higher returns over the long term, while bonds and REITs provide stability and income.
- The expected annual return could range from 6% to 8%, depending on market conditions.
Adjustments for Decreased Risk Tolerance
- Reduce Equities to 20% by shifting funds from equities to more stable investments
- Increase Bonds to 50% to provide more stability and lower risk
- Maintain REITs at 20% for income and diversification
- Eliminate Commodities to avoid the volatility associated with them
Revised Strategy
- Focuses on capital preservation and provides lower volatility while still offering some exposure to the agricultural sector
- The expected return would likely decrease to around 4% to 6%.
