ActivePassive Investing
Envestnet has spent years studying the performance of active and passive managers across asset classes. Our resulting philosophy for ActivePassive investing can be easily adopted and offers scalability, consistency, and the chance for improved conversations with clients around fees and performance.
What is ActivePassive investing?
ActivePassive investing blends active and passive solutions in an effort to deliver the best of both. Our approach provides what we view as an ideal combination of active and passive investment strategies. We’ve studied each asset class and looked at where active managers are more likely to outperform and where they are less likely to outperform.
Our Active vs. Passive Asset Management Study
In 2006, we first published our study that dissected which asset classes are better candidates for active or passive management. Our research has been refreshed since then, and the results show how we should consider and review asset classes for active and passive investing.
