Multi asset

Our experienced multi asset teams manage portfolios to support a broad range of investor needs.

Our clients are looking to diversify their holdings across asset classes in order to achieve their risk and return goals. By delegating your asset allocation and stock selection decisions to our investment teams, we believe you can receive a simple solution drawing on the expertise of our investment professionals, from a single source. Once invested, you may benefit from regular market insights and high-quality reporting, enabling a transparent view of market developments.

Get active

Markets are neither perfectly efficient nor completely inefficient. Our clients face the decision whether to use a fundamental or a systematic approach when allocating to different asset classes and selecting securities. Vontobel offers all of this separately, or a combination thereof, to help clients meet and exceed their absolute and benchmark targets.

Active management creates value only when profits exceed costs. Opportunities exist at different times in various segments of the global financial markets, and can be spotted through constant screening.

Risk management and sustainability considerations are an integral part of our investment process. We aim to pursue what is economically feasible with the highest precision, and our decisions are transparent, based on verifiable economic theory.
