GSI Country Allocation

This wikifolio follows a systematic country-allocation approach focused on identifying economies showing sustained long-term growth, structural development and improving economic relevance over time. Countries are assessed through predefined quantitative criteria designed to distinguish durable secular trends from short-term economic fluctuations. Eligibility and portfolio inclusion follow predefined quantitative criteria, while position sizing and execution are governed by consistent portfolio rules. Market conditions may also be considered when determining entry timing and subsequent position management, without altering the underlying country-selection framework. Exposure to eligible countries is implemented through suitable stocks, funds and ETPs available within the wikifolio investment universe, with preference given to instruments capable of providing a representative exposure to the underlying country. Where an adequate representation is not available, the country may remain outside the portfolio. The strategy is reviewed periodically to reflect changes in the underlying country fundamentals and in the investable universe. Its objective is to maintain a diversified allocation toward countries exhibiting persistent economic development while applying consistent portfolio rules over time.
