As part of our financial planning process, our clients benefit from our robust and consistent investment advice process which involves the following elements:
- What is important about money to you?
- Understanding and identifying your objectives and goals as well as your attitude to investment risk and returns?
- Defining the time frame for results.
- Clearly defining what investment is and what it isn’t.
- Helping you to understand the truth about money.
- Benefiting from our significant experience in this area to help you avoid the common mistakes frequently made by investors.
- Setting an initial asset allocation strategy using our unique investment matrix.
- Undertaking research in conjunction with Old Broad Street Research (See Below), to select a suitable home and investment funds balanced to your agreed attitude to investment returns and risk.
- Providing an ongoing review of your portfolio to ensure it is rebalanced to your attitude to investment returns and risk, with the removal of any funds not holding an OBSR rating, where possible.
OBSR uses an investment research approach that has been in place since 1994. The emphasis is on looking forwards, not backwards; and for this reason they place a great deal of importance on understanding the investment processes of the fund manager in question. Their conclusions also take into account performance analysis such as historic returns. This means that they are aware of past results rather than driven by them and consider this statistical information when providing their overall opinion. This is why we employed the services of OBSR for use in our investment advice process.
