Abstract
In this overview of global asset allocation opportunities, the authors tout the “three Ps:” philosophy, process, and performance. The questions they examine along the way include: the performance of global asset allocation; whether equity market correlations have been increasing; the relationship of investment horizons to the benefit of international diversification; country-industry and value-growth comparisons; and optimal currency hedging strategies. “Only by studying world equity markets in conjunction with the economic, social, and political aspects of world affairs” can portfolio managers be informed on this issue, they say.
