Investing has become extremely complex, and we
believe that successful investing requires adherence to a series
of well defined principles. Our experience has helped us to
define our investment philosophy.
- Use money
managers that have a track record of consistency.
- Create an
investor profile based upon your answers on our
questionnaires.
- Actively
manage the accounts to take advantage of market changes.
- Measure
and monitor the portfolio regularly against the investor
profile.
- Focus on
the big picture of the client's goals.
- Stick to
the plan and periodically monitor changes in the client's
life.
In this world of complex and
diverse choices, our team can simplify those choices and help
you choose what is best for your unique situation.
Our Process
Our investment management
process is consistent, careful, complete and ongoing. Based on a
series of five steps, this process is designed to enhance our
clients' returns and reduce their investment risk
- We develop
an individual investment profile based on your particular
time horizon, the effect of inflation on your financial
goals, and your attitude about investment risk.
- We
recommend a personalized asset allocation policy based on
the needs and objectives identified in Step 1. Our objective
will be to maximize your returns in line with your risk
tolerance, through careful diversification of your
investment portfolio. Asset allocation and
diversification do not guarantee against loss; they are
methods used to help manage risk.
- We will
implement an asset allocation policy by investing in a
diversified portfolio of mutual funds, individual stocks,
bonds (both taxable and tax-free), certificates of deposits,
and other investments.
- We will
carefully monitor both the return and the risk of each
investment in your portfolio, making sure that each one
continues to serve your overall investment profile. When
necessary, we will recommend rebalancing or repositioning of
your assets.
We will provide periodic reports to you including
information on asset values, realized and unrealized gains and
losses, dividends, interest and all other transactions. Most
important, we will tell you the actual performance of your
portfolio in clear, understandable rate of return reports.
