More than 50 years later and after three years of research,<br \/>\nPanthera Solutions, with the goal of providing a representative, broad-based benchmark<br \/>\nfor multi-asset investing, developed a framework to measure the Global Capital Stock,<br \/>\nconsidering both financial and non-financial investable assets (Working Paper download:<br \/>\nhere). The Global Capital Stock for investors is acting as an academically sound proxy for<br \/>\nthe global market portfolio.<\/p>\n<p>Their research has resulted in a global market portfolio organized into 11 asset classes,<br \/>\neach weighted in proportion to the respective market capitalizations. These include public<br \/>\nequities, government securities, financial institutions bonds, nonfinancial corporate<br \/>\nbonds, securitized loans, non-securitized loans, cash equivalents, cash, real estate, land<br \/>\nand private businesses. The components of the<strong> Solactive Panthera World Market<br \/>\nPortfolio Index<\/strong> are selected based on their ability to track as closely as possible each asset<br \/>\nclass and represent the underlying market properly.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Solactive Panthera World Market Portfolio Index<\/strong> can be used as a benchmark against<br \/>\nwhich to compare the performance of multi-asset portfolios. Equally, it can be employed<br \/>\nto analyse the relative performance of each asset class through time. In addition, it can act<br \/>\nas the parent index of active strategies or as the foundation on which to build investment<br \/>\nproducts such as ETFs.<\/p>\n<p>Steffen Scheuble, CEO of Solactive, commented:<em> \u201cMost benchmark solutions for multiasset<br \/>\nstrategies have typically focused on traditional financial assets, thus overlooking<br \/>\nnon-financial ones. The consequence is a partial picture of asset holdings globally. In order<br \/>\nto fill the gap, Panthera Solutions and Solactive have come up with a proxy for the global<br \/>\nasset market taking into account both financial and alternative assets. This is captured by<br \/>\nthe <strong>Solactive Panthera World Market Portfolio Index<\/strong>, which can be considered as one of<br \/>\nthe most representative and least biased benchmarks for multi-asset investing in the<br \/>\nmarket so far.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Markus Schuller, Managing Partner at Panthera Solutions, stated: <em>\u201cIn recent years, multiasset<br \/>\ninvesting became increasingly popular. In Europe alone, more than 14.000 multiasset<br \/>\nfunds are offered. Evaluating their asset allocation quality with traditional risk<br \/>\nmeasures or non-representative benchmarks has proven to be insufficient.<br \/>\nThe <strong>Solactive<br \/>\nPanthera World Market Portfolio Index<\/strong> offers the very first representative benchmark for<br \/>\nmulti-asset strategies as it is based on the Global Capital Stock.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Solactive Panthera World Market Portfolio Index<\/strong> is calculated as a price return, net<br \/>\ntotal return and gross total return index. The index is published in USD. As of the launch<br \/>\ndate, the index was composed of 78 ETFs. The asset classes are represented by a minimum<br \/>\nof 2 ETFs up to 47. The weight of each asset class is proportional to the market<br \/>\ncapitalization of other asset classes. Similarly, the weight of each ETF covering a specific<br \/>\nasset class is proportional to its market capitalization within that asset class. The index is<br \/>\nrebalanced monthly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Solactive and Panthera Solutions are launching the Solactive Panthera World Market<br \/>\nPortfolio Index.
