Macroeconomic Factors

Macroeconomics relatively stable in US, but uncertain in globalFED has dual mandate when determining monetary policy:● GDP growth & U.S. Unemployment● Inflation (Seeking price stability)● FED ending Quantitative Easing

Recommended Characteristics

Interest Rate Declining so far but will drift upwards in 2015 negatively impact treasury bonds

Macro-economic Conditions Oil prices will remain low in short term U.S Government support credit risk and limit increase in credit spreads, lower default risk Moderate Growth in the U.S. economy European recession and uncertainty in emerging markets

Recommended Characteristics

Features of Bond Short-term Short duration Corporate High Yield High Credit Spread European Bonds high risk

Reasons Less affected by rising rates Default risk hold outSince we recommend short duration bonds with high credit spreads, we position the interest rate on the left end of the yield curve.

Weight Breakdown

TREASURY: 10% < 31% (AGG) – Seeking far less exposure to interest rate risk than the benchmark

CORPORATE: 40% > 19.4% (AGG) - Seeking double the exposure than the benchmark because less tied to interest rates and more on company fundamentals

INTERNATIONAL: 10% > 7.1% (AGG) - Seeking more emerging market exposure due to high growth rates matched with high yield/coupons and currently trades at a discount

MBS: 25% = 25% (AGG) - Seeking similar exposure to the MBS market due to high yield, more safety because collateralized, no price premium, and continuing recovery of the housing market

CASH: 15% < 17% (AGG) - We want to put slightly less cash on the sidelines and more in assets with a yield
