Legg Mason Martin Currie Tact Allc A Performance Review | News

What is the Legg Mason Martin Currie Tact Allc A fund?

The Fund aims to earn an after-fee return in excess of the Benchmark over rolling five-year periods. The Benchmark is a composite of 50% the S&P/ASX 200 Accumulation Index and 50% the Bloomberg AusBond Composite Index. The Fund seeks to provide exposure to tactical asset allocation decisions between Australian equities, Australian bonds and cash based on an assessment of the relative valuations of these asset classes. The investment manager’s approach is premised on the philosophy that the Australian equity market is efficient over the long term but “short-term inefficient” – disciplined investors can exploit short-term market movements to add long-term value. The Fund is tilted toward the relatively undervalued asset class in the expectation that the undervalued asset class will outperform as it returns to assessed fair value.
