About WASAX
Macquarie Asset Strategy Fund Class A is an actively managed global allocation mutual fund designed to pursue a balance of capital growth and income. Its primary function is to dynamically allocate assets among a diverse set of global asset classes with varying correlations, including equities, fixed income, and potentially alternative investments. This strategic diversification seeks to optimize returns while managing risk through global macroeconomic cycles. The fund generally maintains less than 75% of its holdings in US securities, ensuring meaningful international exposure and access to growth and income opportunities worldwide. Established in 2000, Macquarie Asset Strategy Fund Class A serves investors looking for a moderate allocation approach that provides both diversification and flexibility, adapting to changing market conditions through tactical management. Its role in the financial market is to offer investors a single-fund solution that accesses multiple regions and asset classes, potentially enhancing overall portfolio resilience and smoothing volatility relative to more narrowly focused investments.
