Australian Finance Podcast
3 ETFs for your whole portfolio? Cameron’s picks for your 30s and 50s

Even after the fee, that's the key point.

Australian Finance Podcast
3 ETFs for your whole portfolio? Cameron’s picks for your 30s and 50s

Yeah, even including net of our fee, it's delivered, I think it's six basis points or 0.06% below the index.

Australian Finance Podcast
3 ETFs for your whole portfolio? Cameron’s picks for your 30s and 50s

Now, typically you would expect a larger impact from your fees and costs, but super efficient exposure, very tax efficient, which is really important.

Australian Finance Podcast
3 ETFs for your whole portfolio? Cameron’s picks for your 30s and 50s

So it's, in my view,

Australian Finance Podcast
3 ETFs for your whole portfolio? Cameron’s picks for your 30s and 50s

you know, by far the most effective way to get exposure to emerging markets, you know, considering all the complications there.

Australian Finance Podcast
3 ETFs for your whole portfolio? Cameron’s picks for your 30s and 50s

So if I'm thinking about that portfolio, this is really about providing something where I'm not trying to make any bets.

Australian Finance Podcast
3 ETFs for your whole portfolio? Cameron’s picks for your 30s and 50s

I'm not trying to decide that, for example, UK equities are undervalued or that

Australian Finance Podcast
3 ETFs for your whole portfolio? Cameron’s picks for your 30s and 50s

you know i i want to invest in in you know have a higher weighting to tech or the nasdaq i'm really trying to replicate what the opportunity set is through market capitalization waiting australian equities global equities which are developed markets and emerging markets and do that in the most efficient manner thinking about tax and costs super simple as well that's right just core exposures core building blocks yeah yeah um so quick follow-up questions is

Australian Finance Podcast

Yeah, so look, we look at modelling multi-asset portfolios at BetaShares, and our split of global to Australia, we use an approach basically which is to optimise what we call a Sharpe ratio, but let's keep things simple.

Australian Finance Podcast
3 ETFs for your whole portfolio? Cameron’s picks for your 30s and 50s

We split basically about 40% Australian shares and 60% global.

Australian Finance Podcast

And this is based on our own assumptions, of course, but what we're trying to do is minimize the volatility.

Australian Finance Podcast
3 ETFs for your whole portfolio? Cameron’s picks for your 30s and 50s

So you get that diversification of Aussie versus global, which global has some currency risk.

Australian Finance Podcast
3 ETFs for your whole portfolio? Cameron’s picks for your 30s and 50s

That blend gives us what we think is the best mix in terms of risk-adjusted return, expected return.

Australian Finance Podcast
3 ETFs for your whole portfolio? Cameron’s picks for your 30s and 50s

That's what we mix there.

For that global exposure,

Australian Finance Podcast
3 ETFs for your whole portfolio? Cameron’s picks for your 30s and 50s

Look, you know, you don't have to be precise about this, but if it's 60% global, you might be looking to allocate up to, say, 10, so 50% developed markets, so 50% BGBL, and 10% in BEMG.

Australian Finance Podcast
3 ETFs for your whole portfolio? Cameron’s picks for your 30s and 50s

Okay.

Australian Finance Podcast
3 ETFs for your whole portfolio? Cameron’s picks for your 30s and 50s

Yeah, so I'll go through that in terms of the ETFs.

Australian Finance Podcast
3 ETFs for your whole portfolio? Cameron’s picks for your 30s and 50s

A200, your Australian allocation, 40%.

Australian Finance Podcast
3 ETFs for your whole portfolio? Cameron’s picks for your 30s and 50s

BGBL, your global ex-Australia, doesn't include emerging markets, 50%.
