QS Legg Mason Global Asset Allocation's primary business is providing asset allocation and manager or fund selection advisory services to a variety of clients with multi-asset class portfolios. The firm's investment analysis method with respect to their provision of asset allocation and manager or fund selection advisory services generally involves fundamental analysis with an awareness of market behavior. This fundamental analysis also includes a proprietary analysis of macroeconomic factors and their relationships with equity earnings, equity valuations, interest rates, fixed income valuations, monetary policy, and economic growth. Such fundamental analysis is viewed within a context of current market conditions (i.e., price movement, fund flows and overall market sentiment).
