Active, Special Situation, and Global Strategies
Active investing, activist, event-driven, frontier, global, and special-situation strategy terms.
Investment-strategy terms for style, timing, screening, performance measurement, investor behavior, and portfolio implementation.
Investment strategies are repeatable approaches for connecting objectives, constraints, market views, security selection, risk control, taxes, costs, and performance measurement.
Use this section to decide what a strategy label changes before comparing a security, fund, model portfolio, or client account. Strategy names do not make an investment suitable; the evidence is the mandate, holdings, benchmark, costs, tax setting, liquidity, time horizon, and risk budget.
