You can build your own portfolio or leave it to the experts. I provide you with a number of methods for creating your own portfolio, from market timing, pound/Euro cost-averaging (smart way of saying regular savings), diversification principles, (don’t put all your eggs in one basket) active fund selection, (finding one that works for you) cost-effective purchasing, (low charges) the “fund of funds” concept, (joining a fund of other investors rather than going on your own) and hedge funds (investing in others risks) to increase returns and reduce ones overall portfolio risk.

Strategy
You can select from our specifically chosen FUNDS for GBP, U$D or Euro denominations and you can create your own portfolio. Or if you need help - I can do it for you. I can build you a spread investment to take advantage of any level of market entry, whether you are feeling cautious, or are the more adventurous investor. I have selected certain specialist Managers and Funds that achieve higher returns with lower volatility. This is the benefit of pooled investment funds such as Skandia International, Generali Vie, Societie Générale, Friends’ Provident, Zurich International, and Hansard International etc. They tend to have lower exposure to risk than typical higher-risk equity, or market related funds. Even the “Growth” funds have low risk exposure.
Also, Capital Preservation investments exist where the exposure to risk is very low with the fund guaranteeing your investment capital. Of course, the returns are lower but are usually in excess of banks and other fixed rate interest deposits.
I Classify Risk as Follows:
Very Cautious – No unnecessary risk
Cautious – Small risks acceptable
Moderate – Understanding of risk and reward
Adventurous – Greater Risk accepted
Speculative – High levels of risk accepted
I deal only with the best institutions with the lowest charges
and the greatest fund choice.
Do You Smoke?
Suppose you currently spend £5 per day on cigarettes. Let’s see how much healthier your finances would be (not to mention your lungs) if you gave up
You’d save £1,825 per year
If you paid that into a savings plan, after 10 years you’d have paid in £18,250
If your investment had been growing at, say 6% per annum, you would have £30,000+
Put that in your pipe and smoke it!
