C000104215 Investment Objective and Strategy
ATM Large Cap Managed Volatility Portfolio describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Eq Advisors Trust.
Investment objective
The Portfolio seeks to achieve long-term growth of capital with an emphasis on risk-adjusted returns and managing volatility in the Portfolio.
Principal investment strategy
Under normal circumstances, the Portfolio intends to invest at least 80% of its net assets, plus borrowings for investment purposes, in securities of large-capitalization companies (or other financial instruments that derive their value from the securities of such companies). This policy may not be changed without providing at least sixty (60) days written notice to the Portfolios shareholders. For this Portfolio, large-capitalization companies mean those companies with market capitalizations within the range of the Standard & Poors 500 Composite Stock Price Index (S&P 500 Index) at the time of purchase. As of December 31, 2017, the market capitalization of companies in this index ranged from $3 billion to $868.9 billion. The Portfolio is divided into two portions, one of which utilizes a passive investment index style focused on equity securities of large-capitalization companies and a second portion which utilizes an actively managed futures and options strategy to tactically manage equity exposure in the Portfolio based on the level of volatility in the market.
The combination of these strategies is intended to produce better risk-adjusted returns over time than investing exclusively in a passively managed portfolio of securities. The Portfolio generally allocates approximately 50% of its net assets to a portion of the Portfolio that invests in the common stocks of companies included in the S&P 500 Index in a manner that is intended to track the performance (before fees and expenses) of that index, commonly referred to as an indexing strategy. This percentage may range from 0% to 100% of the Portfolios net assets depending on the level of volatility in the market. These investments typically represent the large-capitalization sector of the U.S. equity market. The Portfolio also may invest in exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that seek to track the S&P 500 Index and in other instruments, such as futures and options contracts, that provide exposure to the index.
The other portion of the Portfolio invests in futures and options contracts, including contracts on the S&P 500 Index, and other strategies to manage the Portfolios equity exposure. During periods when certain quantitative market indicators indicate that market volatility is high or is likely to increase, this portion of the Portfolio may implement strategies that are intended to reduce the Portfolios equity exposure and, therefore, the risk of market losses from investing in equity securities. This portion of the Portfolio may reduce equity exposure in the Portfolio using a variety of strategies, including shorting or selling its long futures positions on an index, entering into short futures positions on an index, or increasing cash levels, or a combination of some or all of these strategies.
During such times, the Portfolios exposure to equity securities may be significantly less than that of a traditional equity portfolio. Conversely, when the market volatility indicators decrease, this portion of the Portfolio may increase equity exposure in the Portfolio such as by investing in futures contracts on an index or by investing in ETFs that provide comparable exposure as an index. Volatility is a statistical measure of the magnitude of changes in the Portfolios returns, without regard to the direction of those changes. Higher volatility generally indicates higher risk and is often reflected by frequent and sometimes significant movements up and down in value. Volatility management techniques may reduce potential losses and/or mitigate financial risks to insurance companies that provide certain benefits and guarantees available under the Contracts and offer the Portfolio as an investment option in their products.
The Portfolios investments in derivatives may involve the use of leverage because the Portfolio is not required to invest the full market value of the contract upon entering into the contract but participates in gains and losses on the full contract price. The use of derivatives also may involve the use of leverage because the heightened price sensitivity of some derivatives to market changes may magnify the Portfolios gain or loss. It is not generally expected, however, that the Portfolio will be leveraged by borrowing money for investment purposes. The Portfolio may maintain a significant percentage of its assets in cash and cash equivalent instruments, some of which may serve as margin or collateral for the Portfolios obligations under derivative transactions. The Portfolio also may lend its portfolio securities to earn additional income.
