Drawdown - Why We Use It

The concept and term of drawdown may be new to many investors but it is an important factor we at Provident use in our analysis of any investment strategy and within the portfolio as a whole. From a risk management perspective drawdown and the mathematics of winning and losing are closely related.

Drawdown is the decline in value from the peak to the trough over a specific time and is usually quoted as a percent. For example, if your investment amount was $100,000 and you lost $50,000 this would represent a 50% loss in value for your investments. Your account equity, the amount remaining, is $50,000 after the drawdown. You will need a gain of $50,000 to bring your investment back to $100,000.

What are Absolute Return Strategies?

"Absolute return funds look to make positive returns whether the overall market is up or down, while index-tracking funds try to beat the index they are tracking."

You've Found the Missing Piece

Financial professionals and individuals alike are moving to an absolute return approach. We believe the days are gone where investors are willing to accept that they are ahead of the game when they only lost 30% and the benchmark lost 35%. There are no guarantees when it comes to investing, but it doesn't mean we shouldn't try to manage risk.

Sometimes its about more than beating the market. Sometimes keeping what you have and seek positive returns in up and down markets. Sometimes its about peace of mind.
