Syntax Data and Donoghue Forlines have partnered to introduce two indexes, the Donoghue Forlines Risk-Managed Momentum Index and the Donoghue Forlines Risk-Managed Dividend Index, aimed at mitigating downside risk in equity markets.
The indexes are designed to provide protection against significant market drawdowns and 'black swan' events by utilizing multi-factor strategies with defensive tactical overlays.
Both indexes are available as separately managed accounts (SMAs) on various platforms and are also offered as mutual fund and variable insurance trusts to provide options for advisors.
The strategic partnership aims to address recent extreme market volatility and provide investors with tools to navigate uncertainty in today's equity markets.
