Written by the pioneers of this technique, 'Global Tactical Asset Allocation' examines the theory and practice of adding value using tactical asset allocation on a global scale. The book explains how to build quantitative models, structure and portfolio and implement the results in a cost-effective way.
To date, most books in this area have examined TAA from a predominately US domestic perspective. This book expands the TAA process into the global arena, and incorporates the decision matrix of forecasting the returns to stocks, bonds, cash and currency of over more than twenty markets. Brown and Goodsall provide insight into the drivers behind the market valuation and how to build models to monitor this process. Supporting chapters detail how to develop systems to implement these strategies in a cost effective manner. The book discusses in detail the concept of risk and how to control it. Finally the text incorporates new thinking on emerging markets and shows how one can apply techniques originally specified for the more developed markets.
