Portfolio Product Risk Rating: Please note that any portfolio product risk rating (the “PoRR”) provided by us is an internal rating assigned based on our product risk assessment model, and is for your reference only. For model portfolios, the portfolio PoRR is a weighted average product risk rating of funds included in the model portfolio rounding to the nearest integer. The PoRR is subject to change from time to time. The PoRR does not take into account your individual circumstances, objectives or needs and should not be regarded as advice or recommendation to purchase, hold or sell any fund or make any other investment decisions. Accordingly, you should not solely rely on the PoRR when making your investment decision in the relevant Portfolio.

We have designed Endowus to be a goal-based investing platform, where you can invest towards your personal life goals, such as saving for children's education, retirement. When you invest with a defined purpose of achieving a certain goal, you can better identify how much you need to invest, the right investment strategy, and the appropriate level of risk to take to get you there. 

At Endowus, we want to help you succeed, which is why we prioritise matching you with a portfolio whose volatility or short-term loss is within your personal stated limit. Our platform will recommend the portfolio with the highest expected return for your stated risk tolerance. 

By investing in a risk-appropriate portfolio, investors are much more likely to stay the course through the near-term ups and downs – giving you the highest chance of reaching your investment goals.

What is Discretionary Portfolio Management?

Discretionary Portfolio Management (DPM) is an investment management service where the portfolio manager has the authority to make buy-and-sell decisions on behalf of the client’s account. This approach allows for a strategic, long-term investment plan that aligns with the client’s investment goals and risk tolerance.

In the context of Endowus Flagship Portfolios, the DPM model is employed to provide you with a seamless and efficient investment experience. 

The Endowus Investment Office performs all the heavy lifting, from portfolio construction to executing transactions, freeing you from the need to monitor the market constantly.

How does Discretionary Portfolio Change (DPC) work?

You will receive an email informing you of the portfolio change. No action is required as we will directly change the funds for you.

We would first redeem the funds which are now either removed from the portfolio or overweight to the new target asset allocation. We will then wait for the redemption proceeds to settle back into your account, and then automatically invest the proceeds into the funds that are newly added to bring your portfolio to the new target asset allocation. As part of the Endowus automated portfolio rebalancing process, we will also take the opportunity to rebalance your portfolio back to its target asset allocation.
