Investment Strategies Underlying the PIA Dimensions Portfolios℠
The PIA Dimensions Portfolios℠, created by Prudent Investor
Advisors, LLC, provide participants in 401(k) plans with a full riskbased menu of investment options. The investment strategies
underlying all these model portfolios are based on the Nobel prizewinning Modern Portfolio Theory as well as on the Fama/French
Three-Factor Financial Economic Model. This approach, grounded
in academic research that has withstood rigorous open review for
many years, does not rely on analysts’ forecasts or opinions about
financial markets, but instead incorporates the key factors that
drive the long-run performance of these markets.
Many participants in 401(k) plans as well as other investors lack
the time or interest to research advanced investment principles. In
the absence of such expertise, they may take unintended
investment risks. Even experienced investors can find themselves
perplexed by unexpected events that occur in financial markets.
Compared to conventional broad-based equity market
benchmarks, the PIA Dimensions Portfolios℠ focus to a greater
extent on small company stocks and value stocks. This emphasis is
the result of global evidence that such stocks have above-average
expected returns and provide significant diversification benefits
when combined with large company stocks and/or growth stocks.
This emphasis also incorporates a disciplined and patient style of
securities trading, which allows plan participants to reap the
benefits of low costs and fees. A plan participant that chooses a
PIA Dimensions Portfolio℠ replaces forecasting and guesswork
with a disciplined, professional approach that incorporates the
benefits of investment theory developed over the past four
decades. Selecting a PIA Dimensions Portfolio℠ represents a
thoughtful and diversified approach for plan participants.
Each PIA Dimensions Portfolio℠ holds more than 12,000 securities
from approximately forty-five countries. Worldwide diversification
minimizes the potential negative short-term impact that any one
company, asset class or country may have on a portfolio’s
investment strategy. This reduces overall portfolio risk, allows full
exposure to the returns offered by financial markets and limits
style drift. No amount of diversification, however, can completely
eliminate the potential for investment loss.
