3 SEI Target Allocation Strategy Suite
Those critical asset allocation decisions can
be achieved in one of two ways
Strategic asset allocation:
Utilizes a modern portfolio theory-
based approach, constructed on
the basis of long-term asset class
forecasts with the target to maintain
a set combination of asset classes.
Dynamic asset allocation:
Incorporates facets of behavioral
finance that more deeply and
broadly diversify allocations and may
more actively adjust asset classes
based on medium-term views.
