Louis is the portfolio manager for Quattro Fund.

An asset allocation fund is a type of mutual fund that invests in a combination of cash, fixed income, and equity securities, but has the flexibility to adjust the portfolio according to market conditions and the fund manager’s outlook. The fund manager can change the asset mix to take advantage of opportunities or reduce risks in different asset classes and markets. The fund’s objective is to achieve a balanced risk-return profile by diversifying across different assets and investment styles. Quattro Fund is an example of an asset allocation fund, as it can invest in cash, fixed income, and equity securities, and Louis can adjust the portfolio according to his views on interest rates and the market.
