Build Financial Strength with Strategy
innovatETF Strategies®
The innovatETF Strategies seek to deliver competitive risk-adjusted returns over a full market cycle, while reducing portfolio volatility and minimizing downside risk when possible. The strategies start with a long-term strategic neutral allocation to five asset classes (U.S. Equities, Non-U.S. Equities, Fixed Income, Real Estate, Alternative Investments, and Cash) based on long-term (strategic) risk tolerance and return requirements that can be over or under-weighted on a shorter-term (tactical, dynamic) basis. The investment process for making asset allocation and security selection decisions includes a proprietary quantitative model, as well as qualitative analysis evaluated by an experienced team of portfolio managers. There are six strategies segmented by strategic risk/return objectives -- Defensive, Income Growth, Conservative, Balanced, Growth, and High Growth. Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are the securities used to express the asset allocations underlying positions.
U.S. Equities - large-cap, mid-cap, small-cap, growth, value
International - developed markets, emerging markets, regions and/or countries
U.S. Fixed Income - corporate, government, high yield, agency, municipal
Real Estate - real estate investment trusts
Alternatives - metals, other commodities, absolute return funds, opportunistic investments
Cash - cash and short-term cash equivalents
Defensive
This portfolio with a fixed income bias, may be appropriate for investors with a cautious risk tolerance and/or shorter investment time horizon. The focus of the strategy, primarily utilizing ETFs, is to mitigate overall volatility and provide downside protection, while producing total investment returns consistent with a more conservative portfolio over a market cycle.
Conservative
This portfolio may be suitable for the cautious investor, one with a lower risk tolerance and/or shorter investment time horizon. The portfolio combines modest potential for capital appreciation with potential for downside protection by investing in a diversified portfolio, generally with a fixed income bias.
Income Growth
This portfolio may be suitable for the investor looking for current income and income growth, with a secondary consideration of capital appreciation. This strategy seeks to provide above market income stream and temper volatility by exposure to dividend paying securities through investments, primarily in domestic and international Equity and Fixed Income ETFs, REITs and some alternatives.
Balanced
This portfolio may be suitable for the investor who wants to achieve steady growth, while limiting fluctuation to less than that of the overall stock market. The portfolio combines investments primarily in equity and fixed income ETFs to provide investors with balanced and varied exposure to the stock and bond markets. This portfolio may be appropriate for investors who primarily seek long-term capital appreciation with a more moderate risk profile.
Growth
This portfolio may be suitable for investors with a relatively high tolerance for risk and a longer investment time horizon. The main objective of this portfolio is capital appreciation, and investors should be able to tolerate fluctuations in their portfolio values. While this portfolio will experience volatility similar to that of the equity markets, exposure to fixed income markets may lower the volatility relative to an all-equity portfolio.
High Growth
This portfolio may be suitable for investors who have both a higher tolerance for risk and a long-term investment time horizon. The main objective of this portfolio is to construct a high growth portfolio. Investors should be able to tolerate substantial fluctuations in portfolio value from year to year. The portfolio seeks long term capital appreciation through investments primarily in domestic and international ETFs.
Equity Strategies

Disciplined, Growth & Innovation
This portfolio integrates ESG considerations characteristics and analysis into our investment decision-making process, at both the individual security and holistic portfolio level; while excluding stocks of specific companies involved in certain business models such as alcohol manufacturers, tobacco manufacturers, gambling, adult entertainment, and providing abortions as a means of birth control. Companies are automatically excluded if any of these activities are greater than 10% of a company’s total revenues. Portfolios are constructed to have overall ESG characteristics. GLOBALT utilizes a third-party ESG information provider, Sustainalytics, for its quantitative ESG metrics and characteristics. The process specifically excludes stocks of all companies that are in Sustainalytics Severe Risk category (Risk Score of 40 and above). The Risk Rating Score is evaluated in the context of its Sector Peer scores and factors of the overall portfolio.

Equity Income

Investments include stocks from a majority of the economic sectors of the market, focusing on stocks with a long-term history of dividend payouts. The portfolio employs a mixture of dividend growers and higher-yielding stocks to provide current income and income growth.
