Investing Tailored to You

An Investment Plan Designed Around You

Your investments play a significant role in your long-term plan. Yet it can be difficult to know where to start with so many options and opinions. We understand that success is not driven by guessing the next hot stock or trying to time the short-term movements of the market. It is achieved by crafting a plan designed to your financial situation and adhering to a disciplined investment process. 

“The individual investor should act consistently as an investor and not as a speculator.” – Ben Graham


Our Disciplined Approach to Managing Money 

There is no one size fits all when it comes to investing. Every person has specific needs and goals for their money. Your strategy will be based on your personal objectives, risk tolerance, risk capacity, investment time horizon and more. We take a collaborative approach in crafting your investment plan so that you know exactly what the plan is and why it is being created that way. 

Our disciplined investment philosophy relies on the following:

  1. Asset allocation & location: Strategic selection among active and passive mutual funds and ETF's (Exchange Traded Funds)
  2. Opportunistic rebalancing: A forced discipline to sell high and buy low, keeping your investments aligned with your plan.
  3. Tax-efficiency: Managing investment with taxes top of mind and utilizing tax-loss harvesting.
  4. Low cost: Keeping investment expenses and transaction costs as low as reasonably possible.
  5. Managing emotions: Maintaining discipline in during short-term market declines, which naturally feel uncomfortable.

The 8 Tenets of Our Approach

The 8 Tenets of My Approach

  • Invest for the long-term – Markets reward patient, long-term investors.
  • NO market timing – Time in the market is more important that timing the market.
  • Manage investor emotions – Managing emotions through difficult periods can be the difference between success and failure.
  • Ignore headlines and short-term market movements – Markets are volatile in the short-term and headlines add to that volatility.
  • Avoid chasing performance – Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.
  • Asset location is as important as asset allocation – Where your assets are held can impact their after-tax return.
  • Pay attention to fees – Do not pay more than you need.
  • Broad Diversification - Diversify investments across asset classes as well as geography.
