Our advisory services are a great way to incorporate a variety of assets into a single consolidated and comprehensive investment strategy. This service is ideal for clients who have special needs or circumstances that may benefit from a customized portfolio or even own highly appreciated stock and need to systematically diversify to reduce portfolio risk.

In this model, we can drive and implement portfolio decisions on your behalf based on the goals and objectives we set in our annual meeting. We will continually monitor and evaluate your portfolio providing convenience and simplicity of consolidated reporting for all your investments.

It has been our experience that investment success is usually determined through an unwavering commitment to a set of clearly defined investment principles.

These principles define our investment philosophy:

• Put all financial and investment plans in writing.
• Market timing is not an investment strategy.
• Long-term investors should remain fully invested, unless it is clearly not prudent to do so.
• Chasing “hot” performance inevitably leads to poor investment results.
• Use asset allocation and style diversification to help reduce risk and possibly increase returns.
• Never let emotional decisions replace rational judgment.
• Partner with an advisor who is not subject to conflicts of interest, and who takes the time to make sure that you understand the realities of the investment climate and your financial decisions.

Investing involves risk, including loss of principal. No strategy assures success or protects against loss.
