What is the difference between HALO Core and HALO Focus?

How are the Strategic portfolios managed?
Halo FAQ

HALO oversees the ongoing investment process, including strategic asset allocation, investment selection, monitoring, model portfolio reviews and rebalancing. Tactical changes may also be made where the investment case supports them.

What is the difference between Strategic and Thematic Model Portfolios?
Halo FAQ

Strategic Model Portfolios are designed as broader, complete model portfolio solutions. HALO Thematic Model Portfolios provide targeted exposure to specific sectors, structural trends and investment themes identified by HALO Research.

Do HALO Core portfolios use ETFs or managed funds?
Halo FAQ

Both. HALO Core can use ETFs and managed funds, with HALO selecting the investment vehicle it considers appropriate for each asset class and portfolio.

Where direct securities are used, investors have beneficial ownership of the underlying shares. This provides greater visibility over individual holdings and tax parcels and may allow eligible franking credits to be attributed to the investor.
