What is 'core and satellite' portfolio construction strategy in mutual funds?

0% of students got this wrong

EXPLANATION

The core-satellite approach uses a stable, low-cost, diversified core (e.g., index fund or large-cap fund) forming 70-80% of the portfolio, while a smaller satellite portion takes targeted bets in higher-conviction, higher-risk categories (mid-cap, sectoral, international). This balances stability with alpha-seeking.
