The Derivative

Setting the Risk Parity Record Straight (it’s NOT just stocks/bonds) with Resolve’s Rodrigo Gordillo and Mike Philbrick


Listen Later

We’re talking with the purveyors of one of the best performing mutual funds thus far in 2022, the dynamically shifting asset allocator, RDMIX (past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results). It hasn’t all been rainbows and lollipops, however, for the ReSolve Asset Management Global team of Rodrigo Gordillo and Mike Philbrick, and they explain why and when a core of Risk Parity should work, and exactly what is and isn’t a Risk Parity approach (hint: it’s not just levered stocks and bonds).

In this episode, we're tackling topics like; does anyone actually use 60/40, The RDMIX 50/50 portfolio (50% Risk Parity/50% Alpha Strategies), ensembles of alpha sources, diversification of betas, and asset allocation in general, commodity trend following, return stacking and dispersion, and more. Plus, we're getting personal with Rodrigo and Mike (we even include Adam), and it's up to our host Jeff to decipher what is true and what is not.

Chapters:

00:00-02:03 = Intro

02:04-20:19 = Does anyone actually use 60 /40?,  "TIPS", and inflation

20:20-30:25 = No, bonds aren’t the end of Risk Parity, Risk Parity isn’t just Stocks/Bonds

30:26-46:01 = RDMIX’s 50/50 portfolio = 50% in Risk Parity/50% in Alpha Strategies

46:02-01:00:53 = Ensembles, Diversification & Asset Allocation in RDMIX

01:00:54-01:16:13 = Commodity Trend Following, Return Stacking & Dispersion

01:16:14-01:24:54 = Three Truthful/not true, well... Manager "stories" from ReSolve
