Definition of 'Asset Class Breakdown'
The relative percentages of core asset classes such as equities, fixed income and cash, along with real estate and international holdings, found within a mutual fund, exchange-traded fund or other portfolio. Further breakdowns are sometimes made within the asset classes into growth stocks, value stocks, market capitalizations (small, medium, large) and various types of fixed income such as government bonds, corporate bonds and municipal bonds.
Asset class breakdowns are calculated by dividing the market value of a particular asset class's holdings by the total fund or portfolio assets.
