  • Building a Rules-Based Portfolio

Discretionary decisions are where most portfolios lose their edge. A rules-based portfolio replaces opinion with a written policy: allocation bands, rebalancing triggers and hard risk limits.

The three rules that matter

  1. Define the maximum weight per asset before you buy it.
  2. Rebalance on drift, not on headlines.
  3. Cut exposure automatically when volatility exceeds your band.

Written down and automated, these rules survive the days when conviction does not.
