Investing: Strategic and Tailoreding

Investing: Strategic and Tailoreding?

We have a saying, today the average investor has at their fingertips the power to invest in a way advisors 20 years ago could only dream of. The issue is often defining what your investments are supposed to do and managing them in a time efficient and consistent manner.

Our philosophy around investing:

Define an accountable goal and we usually suggest you should have one of 3 definable goals

3 Definable goals are:
1. Growth
2. Income and
3. Protection

Tax efficiency of Investing

1. Tax bracket planning.
2. Avoiding passive taxation
3. Looking at Tax strategies

Overall efficiency of the Equity Markets as a Core holding

1. A core holding for one person may not be the same for another.
2. This usually is trying to capture broad exposure to the market.
3. This is supposed to have generally predictable long term returns

Consistent follow up and accountability

Our side by side process:

Determining what you are doing well
Pointing out strategies that might compliment what you are already doing
Working with you to determine what you might want to self retain versus hand off to a professional
Giving you access to services you wouldn’t already have access to

Our Clients tend to fall into 3 categories

1.Those who just need education and want a flat fee arrangement
2.Those who want a specific strategy for diversification but will self retain other investments
3. Those who want a personal relationship with an advisor who invests on their behalf taking

the stress away from them
