OUR INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY
Our 10-point investment strategy
Adrian Mastracci
We believe that managing your financial security is a long journey. The proven and consistent approach to create, grow and preserve your wealth is with the long-term investment perspective.

Our firm is committed to assisting our clients through the application of prudent investment strategy. Ours is effective and straightforward:

  • Establish reasonable expectations on what you want the portfolio to provide.
  • Develop your written investment plan consistent with your goals, time horizon, investor profile, broad diversification and risk tolerances.
  • Focus on the quality of your investments, even though some will disappoint.
  • Try your best not to incur large losses.
  • Don’t chase performance investments and hot sectors.
  • Monitor your portfolio selections and examine the reasons to hold them.
  • Assess their future investment prospects and take action as necessary.
  • Refrain from emotional attachment to any investment.
  • Rebalance periodically close to your asset mix targets.
  • Hold the investments for a long time.

The foundations of our investment philosophy are objectivity, capital preservation and investing for the long-term. Our perspective on managing client wealth comes from experience, knowledge and insight accumulated over more than 30 years.

Our investment philosophy stands the test of time. Our depth of knowledge enables us to design personal, comprehensive and cost-effective solutions for a wide range of client needs

Our investing style

Investing is similar to building a home. First, the blueprint, then the materials are ordered. We start by listening attentively to our clients. We identify what is important to them. Their best interests come first.

The process of investing the client portfolio is about setting a course of action to achieve a personal rate of return. We focus keenly on three client factors: comfort with investment risks, needs for broad diversification and time horizon.

We pay close attention to the costs of investments and their tax friendliness. We remove emotional attachments to investments. Successful investing tries to be right more often than wrong. The mix of assets has the biggest impact on portfolios.

Our questions for you
Every investor should examine the investment portfolio periodically. Ask yourself these questions as you conduct your review:
  • Are you happy with your investment, retirement and estate plan?
  • Are you receiving objective and coordinated counsel from your advisers?
  • Would you purchase the same investments today?
  • Are you comfortable with your asset mix given your goals and net worth?
  • Are you paying too much in investment fees and expenses?

Perhaps, a professional review of your portfolio is a valuable exercise.

Our counsel is objective, without conflicts of interests.
