8AM CleverMPS Quarterly Update Q2 2021

To mark the third anniversary of CleverMPS, we’ll lift the bonnet, showing you how our technology optimises fund selection, and why the models have done so well versus peer group.

CleverMPS is driven by the same CleverEngine that drives our centralised investment proposition, CleverAdviser, with a proven track record since 2009.

Our mission is to create better investment outcomes for investors and help IFAs retain and grow their business. And with £1.5 billion of funds under management, the Clever way is now the trusted choice of more than 100 IFA firms and 12,000+ investors.

George Cliff will illustrate the Clever process used across our centralised investment proposition and model portfolio service - cutting edge technology that ensures:
•	Fund selection decisions are disciplined, rational, logical and precise
•	No subjective human bias – a common cause of portfolio under-performance
•	No capacity issues – the system can handle more data and analysis than a human ever could
•	No hesitation to sell an under-performing fund

George will also demonstrate how the Clever system can improve communication and engagement with clients, and still give IFAs more time to grow their business.

And we’ll answer all your questions about the technology and process.

CleverMPS 3rd Anniversary - The secret to our great performance

It’s no secret that the last 20 years have been a trying and troublesome time for Value investors. Historically championed by some of the best and brightest in the industry, the strategy seems to have lost its way lately, leaving us all asking, ‘where’s the value!?’.

Join our analyst George Cliff as he investigates the reasons for such a sustained period of under-performance, how it might be that Value strategies could improve in the future BUT most importantly of all the perils of wedding yourself exclusively to any one strategy and style of investing. 

What you will learn:
- Just how poorly Value strategies have performed across equity markets
- Why this may have been the case
- Whether there is any hope for Value strategies in the future
- How remaining flexible in your investing style is crucial in achieving top tier outcomes

Value investing - where did the value go?

Join our very own George Cliff as he talks you through one of the single biggest reasons why active funds under-perform their benchmark and how to use this to your advantage.

This presentation will introduce you to the concept of closet indexing, its drag on portfolio performance but most importantly how to use this as an opportunity to consistently find winning funds!

Our findings are ground-breaking and reflect our continued efforts to better our systematic approach to fund selection and the delivery of value to investors.

We uncover some uncomfortable but welcome truths:
•	There are some great funds out there, genuinely delivering an active service. They’re just harder to find, and we show you how.
•	Out-performance can be consistently achieved using the right process.
•	How fund size and age can impair returns and influence manager behaviour.
•	Why closet indexing and under-performance happen.

We hope you will join us as we unveil what could be the single biggest discovery of the last 10 years on how to generate real investment value for your active clients.
