10 Years and Going Strong

Dealing with market volatility can mean different things depending on the investment goal. For the TD Retirement Portfolios (Portfolios), which in 2023 celebrate their tenth anniversary, this means providing investors with an offering that acts as a fixed income compliment within their portfolios that delivers a risk profile in-line with fixed income combined with a potential return profile that surpasses fixed income.

Navigating volatile markets and delivering a smoother journey on investors paths to reaching their investment goals is of key importance to the Asset Allocation team at TD Asset Management Inc. (TDAM). Now that we have officially reached the 10-year anniversary of our Portfolios, we are certainly more than pleased to have delivered on expectations for our investors.

Economic and market environments may change, but the goal of the Portfolios remains consistent: to deliver fixed income like risk with above fixed income like returns. We have checked all the boxes and delivered this outcome over the past decade because of the deep bench strength of experienced individuals within the TDAM Asset Allocation Team, as well as the tools at our disposal.

The team takes pride in evolving the mandates and ensuring that we have the right tools in our toolkit to add diversification levers and ultimately strive to continuously improve the risk-return profiles of our strategies.

 Volatility in line with fixed income

 Return above fixed income 

 Lower drawdowns than equities and fixed income 

 A consistent decade long track record of delivering on expectations 

 Deep and experienced team with the ability to be nimble 

The team at TDAM looks forward to helping clients reach their investment goals for the next 10 years. And help to diversify and improve risk-adjusted returns within their fixed income allocation. Pursuing long-term investment goals can feel overwhelming at times, however, we believe that adding levers to portfolios that may improve returns without increasing risk helps ease the stress and simply improves the probability of reaching these goals.
