These strategies combine U.S. Treasuries and high quality Corporate bonds with other sectors of the fixed income market including, but not limited to: Asset Backed Securities, Residential and Commercial Mortgage Backed Securities, Agencies. Intermediate Fixed Income: Performa manages intermediate maturity portfolios against a variety of generally accepted benchmarks and includes the same fixed income sectors as its 1-3 Year and 1-5 Year portfolios.

The U.S. Large-Cap Passive Equity strategy centers around holding exchange traded index securities such as Exchange Traded Funds (“ETFs”) focused on long-term capital appreciation and dividend income. The U.S. Large-Cap Passive Equity strategy holdings will be the S&P500, or equivalent, strategy ETF and, when appropriate, other ETFs that represent other sectors or groups generally within the U.S. equity markets.

Asset Allocation: The Firm’s Asset Allocation strategies also invest in vehicles such as mutual funds, private funds or exchange traded/index funds that are managed by sub-advisors and/or third-party ETF providers. When using ETFs or Index Funds, the Company uses its internally focused macro analysis and research to rotate between different asset classes, equity styles and markets. 4. C.

If necessary, Performa will work with the client to determine suitable external managers and/or external investment vehicles that are complimentary to the strategies managed internally by Performa.
