Applied Equity Advisors Team
Capabilities: Solutions & Multi-Asset
Summary
The Applied Equity Advisors team, part of our Solutions & Multi-Assets capability, uses a combination of top-down quantitative macro analysis and stock-specific research to seek to construct a high quality portfolio of companies with attractive valuations, above-average appreciation potential and competitive dividend yields. The team draws upon the extensive resources, talent and reach of Morgan Stanley Investment Management to provide clients with professionally managed discretionary portfolios.
‘‘
Individual stock and overall portfolio performance are determined by both top down macro exposures and bottom up company specific results. We attempt to capture both drivers by using quantitative factor modeling and rigorous fundamental analysis.
