IskraIndex: Deposit+ Product Line

The IskraIndex: Deposit+ portfolio line represents an optimized combination of 10 index ETFs, which may include between 1 and 4-5 of them. IskraIndex calculates two model portfolios in this line: Conservative (risk-averse) and Balanced (risk-neutral).

The asset classes represented by the ETFs include government and corporate bonds, equities, real estate, commodities, and alternative investments. The bond and equity ETFs are geographically diversified across developed and emerging markets. Each ETF for the corresponding asset class is selected to be the largest in its class among those trading on U.S. exchanges. Thus, the Deposit+ portfolio incorporates three dimensions of diversification: within asset class indices, geographical, and across asset classes. In fact, it establishes a new global portfolio benchmark for its level of risk.

All IskraIndex portfolios are the result of optimization in the Expected Return - Risk plane. IskraIndex identifies the most efficient portfolios, where each level of risk corresponds to the highest possible expected return. Therefore, in theory, IskraIndex portfolios outperform any investment alternative of comparable risk. To better understand the optimization process, you can review the IskraIndex model core principles. The portfolio optimization methodology enables outperforming passive ETFs with fixed asset allocations in terms of returns, while simultaneously experiencing significantly smaller drawdowns.
