Index investing as part of a core satellite strategy allows investors to achieve quick and easy diversification across different asset types, sectors, or regions.
By using lower-cost index funds as the core of a portfolio, investors can minimise expenses, thereby improving overall returns.
By pairing active and passive components, investors can potentially benefit from the expertise of fund managers while maintaining the cost advantages of index investing in the core.
