Market-neutral strategy limits risk
Article Abstract:
Pension plan managers can reduce the risk of sudden market movements by using the long-shore, market-neutral equity investing approach. The approach entails purchasing investments that have high-yield potentials for the long-term and selling investments that are not so promising in the short-term. Aside from shielding investments from sudden market shifts, the approach also increases investors' flexibility in choosing investment opportunities.
