Factors are sources of expected returns. Symmetry searches for factors that have been shown historically to deliver higher returns over time. Symmetry Partners investment approach seeks enhanced returns by overweighting assets that exhibit characteristics that tend to be in accordance with one or more factors identified in academic research as historically associated with higher returns. Please be advised that adding these factors may not insure increased return over a market-weighted investment and may lead to underperformance relative to the benchmark over the investors time horizon.
