Smart Beta

Understanding Performance in a Rising Rates Environment

Smart beta strategies, which recently crossed the $1 trillion AUM threshold, have been among the most popular growth segments over the last 10 years. Join us for a presentation looking at how higher yields could impact one corner of the smart beta world—low volatility smart beta ETFs.

In this webcast, we presented:

• A recap of smart beta strategy growth 2008-2017
• How rising yields could impact product performance in the year ahead
• An alternative framework for estimating risk exposures when evaluating these products

The event expanded upon an MPI research piece looking at this issue.

Speakers:

• Rohtas Handa, EVP, Head of Institutional Sales, MPI
• Megan Woods, CFA, Research, MPI
