# Master Portfolio

The Master Portfolio is the bedrock upon which Safeforge's investment strategy is built.

## **Composition**

The composition and weightage of the master portfolio is not fixed. It evolves to adapt to market conditions and optimise performance continually.

## **Optimisation Strategy**

At the core of the Master Portfolio is the Base Portfolio, operating on a Hierarchical Risk Parity (HRP) strategy. This strategy has been backtested with historical data and has showcased a robust performance, and outperforming $ETH.

When Forger-created portfolios outperformed the benchmark after six months, they are merged into the Master Portfolio, enhancing its composition and performance.

Conversely, underperforming user portfolios will be discarded, ensuring the Master Portfolio retains a high-performance and risk-reducing standard.

## **Dynamic Benchmarking Mechanism**

In TradFi, benchmarks often remain static, providing a fixed target to outperform. However, Safeforge adopts a more fluid approach, employing dynamic benchmarking.

The benchmark in this ecosystem is not fixed; instead, it changes in response to the performance of the Base Portfolio within the Master Portfolio.

This the benchmark remains competitive, transparent, and a true reflection of market conditions, thus promoting a healthier competition and continual optimisation.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://safeforge.gitbook.io/safeforge-v1.0/mechanism/master-portfolio.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
