- Schwab Mutual Funds Beat out ETFs
04/06/2011
l
Retirement investing is a "hair on fire" problem -- especially for baby boomers for whom retirement is a near and present danger. There is a real lack of consistent, unbiased information that a retiree can use to help improve risk adjusted returns. Blogger Jenny Hollingworth has been teaching herself about investing and has come to the point where she is going to choose a plan and make her first investments.
In her recent post New Steps she sorted through a list of alternatives and chose the Schwab OneSource Select List Funds.
The reason for her choice was:
- The highest possible rating for each plan is 5 stars. So I bypassed anything that didn’t have 5 (because really, why go for less?)
- Picked out a name I knew: Schwab. Specifically: Schwab OneSource Select List Funds. I selected it.
- This is an application to Charles Schwab's OneSource Select List mutual funds. These funds are No Load and No Transaction Fee (NTF) mutual funds. Based on Schwab's policy, the no load NTF funds have 90 days redemption fee period. As of 1/1/2010, there are total 140 OneSource Select List funds available from Schwab.
We are going to review the Schwab OneSource Select List Funds to see whether she chose a good plan. The plan consists of 137 funds. These funds enable participants to gain exposure to 6 major assets: US Equity, Commodity, Foreign Equity, REITs, Emerging Market Equity, Fixed Income.

This fills this hole and as Schwab makes more of their own funds available, it will be possible to move them into the plan. On this review, the only comment would be to add another REIT choice. The other asset classes have a good number of selections without being overwhelming.
As of Apr 4, 2011, this plan investment choice is rated as above average based on MyPlanIQ Plan Rating methodology that was designed to measure how effective a plan's available investment funds are . It has the following detailed ratings:
Diversification -- Rated as great (99%)
Fund Quality -- Rated as average (47%)
Portfolio Building -- Rated as average (56%)
Overall Rating: above average (66%)
Thehigh diversification score means that all the major and minor asset classes have been ticked. Fund quality is lower because some of the ETF's don't have a long history but that shouldn't impede the ability for the future.

This portfolio performs well against the six asset ETF benchmark- SAA provides lower volatility while albeit delivering lower historical returns but as more of the newer funds are applied to the portfolio, there will be more opportunity for closing the gap
- The TAA portfolios run neck and neck over the five year period
In a future article, we will review performance over the last three months to see how the plan has performed in the light of recent events.
Kay Takeaways- Building a plan of funds is not the preserve of the few -- anybody who has the interest and application to research can provide well constructed plans
- It is possible to benefit from those individuals while still having transparency and not being captive to any particular broker

It has the following detailed ratings:
Diversification -- Rated as great (87%)
Fund Quality -- Rated as below average (27%)
Portfolio Building -- Rated as great (86%)
Overall Rating: above average (69%)From the table above, one can see that the plan has several outstanding stock funds such as Longleaf Partners (LLPFX), Royce Opportunity (ROFIX), LSV Value Equity (LSVEX) and Fidelity Contra (FCNTX). It has also the solid fixed income fund PIMCO Total Return (PTTRX). In addition, it uses many Vanguard index funds that have low cost to complete asset class coverage. The fund choices cover five major asset classes, which are fairly adequate for diversification purpose.Let's analyze further how the plan can help its participants by using two asset allocation strategies: strategic and tactical asset allocation strategies (SAA and TAA for participants in Accenture 401K).
Strategic Asset Allocation is based on well known modern portfolio theory and its key features include: diversification, proper fund selection and periodically re-balancing.
Tactical Asset Allocation works on a diversified array of assets provided by funds in a plan and adjusts asset mixes based on market conditions such as asset price momentum utilized by TAA.
The chart and table below show the historical performance of moderate model portfolios employing strategic and tactical asset allocation strategies. For comparison purpose, we also include the moderate model portfolios of a typical 5 asset SIB (Simpler Is Better) plan . This SIB plan has the following candidate index funds and their ETFs equivalent:
US Equity: SPY or VTI
Foreign Equity: EFA or VEU
REITs: IYR or VNQ or ICF

- Schwab ETF Select List Plan Offers Diversification and High Quality Fund Selection
03/16/2011
by Kevin Carr, A MyPlanIQ Expert User
On March 9, 2011, Charles Schwab announced the release of the ETF Select List. The quarterly Schwab ETF Select List was created by Charles Schwab Investment Advisory, Inc. and is a filtered list of all of the ETFs in the marketplace, highlighting pre-screened, low-cost ETFs. Schwab used quantitative and qualitative screens to filter each ETF and build the list, covering 6 major asset categories and 45 minor asset categories. All ETFs, including Schwab ETFs, are evaluated using the same criteria and broken into sectors for US Equity, Foreign Equity, Emerging Market Equity, Fixed Income, Commodity and REITs.
The ETF Select List gives investors a choice of low-cost, pre-screened ETFs. Schwab highlights just one ETF in each category, chosen based on specific criteria including expense ratio, risk, structure and how well it fits into its category. To make the list, an ETF has to meet minimum criteria that include assets under management, including narrowness of index, trading volume, bid/ask volatility, risk, annualized cost of ownership, fund structure and fit within a given category. The list excludes exchange-traded notes (ETNs), inverse or leveraged ETFs, actively managed ETFs, and unmanaged baskets of securities.
While the ETF Select List has only been out a few days, I constructed a plan on MyPlanIQ platform. The Schwab ETF Select List has no redemption periods, is commission efficient and offers low expenses.
As of March 13, the Schwab ETF Select List Plan has a four star investment menu rating with a 99% diversification score and an overall above average investment choice based on MyPlanIQ Plan Rating methodology . The Plan Rating methodology is designed to measure how effective a plan’s available funds are using key factors such as diversification, fund quality and portfolio building.

Overall Rating: (35%)Current Economic and Market Conditions
We have experienced an uncertain 2010: plenty of worries on whether the US economy will climb out of the great recession and recover.
- The Federal Reserve embarked on Quantitative Easing II (QE2) to stimulate the economy.
- The housing market is still at its low but largely stabilized.
- The unemployment rate is stuck at 9%.
Americans continue to face an uncertain future, given (among others) the high unemployment rate, large federal and local government debts and global trade imbalance. With such an economic backdrop, the stock and debt markets are going to be volatile. Despite this, markets have been resilient and appear positioned to rebound.
In this market it is even more critical to properly diversify and respond market changes. MyPlanIQ offers two asset allocation strategies: strategic and tactical asset allocation strategies ( SAA and TAA for participants in Aflac Incorporated 401(k) Savings and Profit Sharing Plan).
Strategic Asset Allocation is based on well known modern portfolio theory and its key features include: diversification, proper fund selection and periodically re-balancing.
Tactical Asset Allocation works on a diversified array of assets provided by funds in a plan and adjusts asset mixes based on market conditions such as asset price momentum utilized by TAA.
