Endowus - commodities or real estate in portfolio?

Dear Endowus team:

Would like to know the rationale behind only including stocks and bonds in the Endowus portfolio. Why not include other assets like commodities and real estate as well?

Thank you!

For commodities, we are of the view that it is more used as a short term exposure for its low/negative correlation to traditional asset classes.

The long term returns for a passive buy and hold strategy for commodities is low. As an advisory platform that encourages long term passive allocation, we do not prioritise commodities exposure.

For real estate we do have exposure through real estate companies that form part of the funds that we own. Hope this answers your question!
