AI Analysis · Q2 2026

Based on the SEC 13F filing data provided for Elm Partners Management LLC as of September 30, 2025, here is a comprehensive financial analysis.

1. Portfolio Overview

The most striking feature of this filing is the dramatic reduction in portfolio size, with total assets under management (AUM) falling by 62.0%, from $1.72 billion to $654.54 million.

2. Key Holdings

The portfolio is dominated by a few large positions that account for the majority of its value. The top holding, SERIES PORTFOLIOS TR, represents 25.25% of the portfolio at $165.29 million. This large allocation to a specific series portfolio (often a customized separate account or proprietary fund structure) suggests a significant managed mandate distinct from public ETFs.

Following this, the portfolio utilizes a hierarchy of iShares and Vanguard ETFs to gain market exposure:

  • IEMG (iShares Core MSCI Emerging Markets): At $98.96 million (15.12%), this is the second-largest holding, indicating a strong strategic overweight to emerging market equities.
  • IEUR (iShares Core MSCI Europe): At $71.13 million (10.87%), this provides significant exposure to developed European markets.
  • Fixed Income: VGSH (Short-Term Treasury) and STIP (0-5 Year TIPS) combine for roughly 14.5% of the portfolio, suggesting a defensive allocation to high-quality, short-duration fixed income.
