Moderate Growth Strategy
Our Moderate Growth Strategy is focused on generating account growth, but at a more moderate pace than our Total Growth Strategy. Moderate Growth Strategy portfolios are usually composed of ETFs but may also hold selective individual stock and preferred stock securities. Moderate Growth Strategy portfolios usually contain 10-20 securities and can have a maximum of 80% of its assets invested in Growth Building Blocks.
Total Growth Strategy
Our Total Growth Strategy is focused on account growth. Total Growth Strategy portfolios are usually composed of ETFs but may also hold selective individual stock and preferred stock securities. Total Growth Strategy portfolios usually contain 10-20 securities and are permitted to allocate 100% of its assets into Growth Building Blocks. The Total Growth Strategy seeks to generate positive absolute returns while taking no more risk than the S&P 500 (as measured by drawdowns); preferably less risk when possible.
For client accounts in excess of USD $5mm, we will consider further customization upon request.
