INVESCO Ups Exposure to International Equities

August 7, 2007 (PLANSPONSOR.com) - INVESCO has launched a new institutional portable alpha strategy that combines traditional international equity index exposure with the firm's Global Tactical Asset Allocation (GTAA) capability.

According to a press release, the INVESCO GTAA Alpha Overlay – International Equity strategy was developed to outperform the MSCI EAFE Index with a low correlation to traditional markets.

“This new strategy was created in response to client interest in increasing their exposure to international equities while seeking non-traditional sources of alpha such as GTAA,” said Kirk Holland, Managing Director of INVESCO’s Atlanta Investment Group.
