These \u2018momentum leaders\u2019 constituents are then weighted by the inverse of their volatility with a 5% volatility target, ultimately helping to reduce the overall risk in the index.<\/p>\n<p>The index also has broad asset allocation, with eleven instruments across equities, fixed income and commodities. These features together create conditions for strong growth and risk management for investors while still allowing them to benefit from asset diversification. The index was constructed using Bloomberg\u2019s Hypothetical Volatility approach, which more precisely calculates and targets the volatility of the current portfolio using the most recent weights to calculate the risk historically.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor investors looking for a momentum index strategy today, the majority of offerings are limited either in their time horizon, by only looking at performance over a set period and on a single day, or in their asset allocation, by having a narrow focus on equities,\u201d said Allison Stone, Head of Multi-Asset Product, Bloomberg Index Services Limited. \u201cWith the Bloomberg Global Momentum Diversified Leaders 5% multi-asset index, investors can capture momentum leaders across time periods <em>and<\/em> broad asset coverage \u2013 providing investors with richer risk-mitigation controls for more nuanced interests.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This index has been licensed to Farmers Life Insurance Company for its Harvest fixed index annuity product. The company selected Bloomberg for its ability to build complex, innovative indices backed by dedicated research teams and technology capabilities for index automation.<\/p>\n<p>The launch of the Bloomberg Global Momentum Diversified Leaders 5% multi-asset index and similar offerings are a direct result of Bloomberg\u2019s ongoing investment in leading talent and technological capabilities to build highly complex indices, including a recent expansion of equities history to incorporate the past 20 years\u2019 performance. The combination of Bloomberg\u2019s focus on technology and quant research allows for the creation of custom solutions for clients\u2019 specific needs and drives industry-wide innovation.<\/p>\n<p>Bloomberg Terminal clients can access the index using ticker BGMODL5E Index &lt;GO&gt;.
