Portfolio Factsheet
Adaptive Balanced
A tactical, risk-managed portfolio — not a static mix. Each month it selects the most attractive risk-adjusted assets from a global cross-asset menu (equity, government & inflation-linked bonds, gold, commodities, managed-futures trend), inverse-vol weights them, and sizes the book to a ~10% volatility target — concentrating in what is working and de-risking into cash when little qualifies (so a meaningful cash weight in calm or stressed periods is by design). Long-only, walk-forward out-of-sample. Aims for a high Sharpe with far lower drawdown than equities — not to beat the S&P on raw return. IB Pro.

Equity Curve
This product uses US-listed ETFs available on IB Pro only. Returns are shown net of dealing/spread/FX costs but gross of UK tax — a higher-rate taxpayer would face dividend tax, CGT and interest tax that add ~80-150 bps/yr of further drag. See Methodology for full details.
