Webinar Description

Managed futures is a puzzle: 

Yet with zero correlation to stocks and bonds — and big gains during the 2000 dotcom bubble crash, 2007-08 global financial crisis, and 2022 bear markets — some experts believe that the strategy has more diversification “bang for the buck” than private equity, commodities, real estate, private credit, and other common “diversifiers.” 

And yet, only a tiny fraction of advisors use managed futures in their portfolios. In fact, in the US today, managed futures mutual funds and ETFs represent only roughly 0.10% and 0.02% of their respective markets.

Hedge fund veteran Andrew Beer, founder of Dynamic Beta Investments and co-portfolio manager of DBMF (a managed futures ETF that gained over 20% in 2022), will provide a down to earth, practical tour of the space geared toward the key questions advisors want answered:

• What is the Managed Futures asset class? (In straightforward terms.)
• How and why do Managed Futures generate alpha? (The obvious answer.)
• How Managed Futures can diversify a portfolio of stocks and bonds.
• The two big drawbacks for advisors, and how to avoid them.
• How to invest in Managed Futures (the pros and cons of different mutual funds and ETFs).
• How much you should invest in Managed Futures.
• How to position the allocation with clients.
