MoneyShow.com ran an interview on Tuesday with Covestor model manager Robert Gay of Global Equity Analytics and Research Services LLC (GEARS).
Here is an expert from that interview:
Kate Stalter: Now these models, Bob, sound like something that institutional managers would use. But these are also things that individuals can participate in. Tell us how that works.
Robert Gay: Well that’s the exciting thing about Covestor, is that it provides access to investment processes that might be, and increasingly are, more and more difficult for the personal investor to get access to.
Many, many of the products now available to personal investors are either strictly market-oriented. In other words, strictly oriented toward focusing on a specific benchmark, an ETF…and even a lot of professional managed portfolios that are available to personal investors track very close to their index benchmark.
If you want to diverge from that, if you want to move into a higher-return kind of portfolio strategy, Covestor provides an excellent platform to do that on.
