Last year, we released the inaugural edition of LaSalle’s ISA Portfolio View, where we discussed the art and science of portfolio construction and why it matters most when market conditions change suddenly. That was certainly true at the time of last year’s release and remains so today.
In this year’s edition, we cover the five foundational concepts of portfolio management below, and how they should be considered alongside an investor’s objectives and values to devise a strategy for their portfolio.
Why real estate lays out the case for property exposure in a multi-asset context?
- Why global considers the benefits of expanding horizons beyond an investor’s domestic market?
- Why be sector smart tries to make sense of the recent changes in relative sector performance with an eye to building resilient portfolios?
- Why be quadrant smart addresses the interplay among the “four quadrants” of real estate?
- Why manage risk explores the importance of—and our approach to—managing investment risk?
For 2024, we have also updated ISA Portfolio View to include the most recent available data, and added new sections on:
- long-term real estate returns relative to stocks and bonds,
- debt returns’ correlation to other assets, and
- the effect of leverage on both risk and returns.
The speed and unpredictability of market changes over the last few years highlights the importance of not only planning ahead by thinking carefully about how to create real estate portfolios that can be expected to be resilient, but also working with an asset-class expert who understands the nuances presented by real estate.
