Our investment philosophy begins with the belief that asset allocation matters most in overall performance, and that diversification is achieved through multiple asset classes, multiple styles of management, and multiple institutional investment managers’ approach to investing. Since asset classes, investment styles, and individual manager’s performance rise and fall over market cycles, clients can benefit by having several of the world’s top institutional money managers servicing your portfolio. In this way, performance is not tied to the fate of any single investment strategy. Great care is given to the weight of the stocks, bonds and other asset classes in a portfolio. This enables clients to work toward their objectives without exposing them to more risk than they can comfortably accept. We believe that while asset allocation does not guarantee positive results and loss, including loss of principal may still occur, it still matters and is more important than stock selection, market timing, or other decisions.
Diversification and asset allocation do not guarantee positive results. Loss, including loss of principal may result.
