One way that investors try to manage risk and limit the impact of market volatility in a portfolio, is through diversification - a key feature of multi-asset portfolios.
Traditionally a multi-asset strategy combines different types of assets, such as stocks, bonds, real estate, or cash.
With interest in themes having increased in recent years, would you consider adding it to your multi-asset portfolio?
Thematic investing, as explained by Wellington Management, is typically defined as the identification and exploitation of a top-down, innovative, or disruptive trend that has a structural tailwind with the potential to drive above-average returns for companies participating in that trend.

And while thematic investing can be applied to different asset classes, it is often expressed via equities.
