Tiana Conley · Answer 1

C. Tactical Asset Management

Explanation:

Choosing the percentage of the total assets which have to be allocated to a particular asset class is called "strategic asset management" - which is, determining the investment plan.

The allowed deviation from such a percentage provided to the investment manager is considered "tactical asset management," such that the manager may take full advantage of investment opportunities.

C. tactical asset management

Explanation:

Selecting the percentage of total asset to be allotted to a given asset is known as strategic asset management. The percentage of variation from which the asset manager can choose from is called Tactical asset management, so that the manager can take advantage of opportunities within the market.

Tactical asset management is a constantly changing investment strategy that deliberately changes portfolio asset allocation so as to maximize market opportunities.
