Institutional investors face a balancing act between two equally important needs: achieving robust long-term returns while avoiding the painful consequences of near-term drawdowns. The intense market volatility of the past few months highlights the difficulty in maintaining this balance, as most traditional portfolio hedging strategies failed to perform as expected.

• How equity volatility levels exhibit a persistent and reliable relationship with equity returns.
• How a permanent strategic allocation to an equity stabilization strategy that utilizes the persistent volatility/return relationship can improve investors’ long-term risk/return ratios – even if implemented right after a market selloff.
