Disciplined. Thorough.
Consistent.
Another thing you should know and
understand about us is this: we are committed to a systematic, disciplined
approach to investment planning. We are never blown about by the latest
market fear, fad or folly. Seventy-five years of combined experience has
shown us over and over to have a disciplined approach to investing – that
is, doing the research, analysis, evaluation, and performance monitoring –
which may produce investment portfolios that are well positioned to meet or
beat the market benchmarks, through good markets or bad.
Knowing how to do the hard work, and being willing to do it, is critical to
creating and maintaining a portfolio that performs as effectively for you as
it should. We believe we do the hard work very well. Our analysis and
evaluation of the investment products we select for our clients is thorough
and demanding; the monitoring of those products once they’re in your
portfolio is constant and rigorous. We will always strive to give you our
best, honest advice on investments within your risk tolerance.
What we can offer you?
Service. We
are in a service industry. Our team is dedicated to providing you with
the best possible service.
When you call us, you always get a human and never a call
center. Our business cards have our direct phone numbers on them. If we
can't answer, Donna Constantino will and offer to either help, take a
message, or transfer you to voice mail - it's your decision. When you
leave a message we will return your call as soon as possible.
Focus. We are not financial planners but investment advisors. Our job is to know each clients financial and estate
needs, as well as gather an understanding of investment comfort levels and
risk tolerances. The result is a plan and process with a goal to maximize
returns while minimizing risk, based on the asset allocation customized to
your approval.
Commitment.
Once we design and implement a plan, we monitor the portfolio and provide a
quarterly report card, which gives a clear and concise evaluation of the
investments. The report card includes a performance report, explanations, and
recommendations. Further, we update and rebalance your portfolio
annually.
Communication. It is important for us
to stay in contact with you, in good times as well as bad. We are
always available to you, and are proactive in keeping you appraised of your
account and market changes.
