A Disciplined Approach To Investment Management
Our Process
All of our processes – whether investment, review or follow-ups – are rigorous, structured and disciplined.
We typically invest for the long term, favouring a balanced approach that includes conservative, low volatility investments that have the ability to generate dividends. Such investments are like rental properties with dividends acting as the rental income. We don’t believe in quick fixes, complicated investments or active trading. Instead, we make changes only when needed. In short, we strive to win by not losing.
For discretionary managed portfolios where we act as Portfolio Managers, we are held to a higher standard to act in your best interests with care, honesty and good faith. As part of this mandate, we draw on the expertise of TD specialists, risk management specialists and research analysts. Their input helps us to not only manage your portfolio, but also to identify opportunities that lie in market shifts.
