Investment Management

For our high(er) net worth clients, we offer ongoing investment management services.

 

WHAT WE DO:

 

We believe that no one can systematically beat the market. Despite what a majority of advisors and pundits would have you believe, how the market performed yesterday, today, or what analysts expect the market to do tomorrow should be ignored when developing a prudent investment strategy. No one has a crystal ball.

 

Owning broadly diversified target asset classes instead of actively trying to pick winning stocks or fund managers is far wiser. By following this passive investment strategy, we focus on variables that can be controlled. Our goal is to keep fees and taxes to a minimum and manage risk through global diversification while actively managing an asset allocation tailored to your specific situation.

 

WHAT WE DON’T DO:

 

“Noise Investing”

We don’t make the same mistakes as “noise investors” who believe that reading financial publications, listening to the media, or picking the hot fund manager will give them an advantage. The reality is that “noise investing” adds unnecessary risk and costs to your investment plan.

 

Market timing

There are two key components to market timing (buying low and selling high). Not only do you have to decide when to get out of the market, you also have to decide when to get back in. We find this approach fundamentally dangerous and unnecessarily risky.
