Schwab Model Portfolios:
Long-term portfolios built to help your clients reach their goals
Strategy
Designed to be straightforward, transparent and easy to understand. Schwab Model Portfolios are built using Charles Schwab Investment Management’s asset allocation framework, engineered with a deep understanding of investor behaviors.
Highlights
Low cost, well diversified portfolios that combine various investment products in a building block approach.
Advisors can choose from two different portfolios: Core ETF and Core Enhanced ETF. Both utilize a behavioral approach to investments. Select one that’s right for your clients based on their individual goals, circumstances, and behavioral biases.
Schwab Model Portfolios: Core ETF Series (Low cost, core allocation)
The core asset model portfolios are constructed with Schwab exchange-traded funds (ETFs), using traditional market cap-weighted equity, fixed income, and real assets, to create a diversified, low cost core model portfolio. The Core ETF model portfolios offer twelve allocations utilizing varying levels of asset class exposures to fit a range of client risk appetites and likely investor behaviors.
Schwab Model Portfolios: Core Enhanced ETF Series (Enhanced risk/return potential)
The enhanced portfolios are constructed with Schwab exchange-traded funds (ETFs), incorporating strategic beta, style, and sub-asset classes as a complement to traditional cap-weighted index strategies. The Core Enhanced ETF model portfolios offer twelve allocations utilizing varying levels of asset class exposures to fit a range of client risk appetites and likely investor behaviors.
