1. Assess the Current Situation

We Begin by Understanding. View the Process

Whether your endowment or fund is new or established, it has unique characteristics that we first must understand in order to provide effective advice. To help establish a solid relationship, we listen first.

We explore your investment goals and objectives as well as expected cash flows, governing principles, growth expectations, and spending requirements to understand the unique characteristics that could affect selection of investments and the advice you receive. For existing portfolios, we evaluate your current managers and funds, and compare your current holdings to the asset allocation and risk parameters in your Investment Policy Statement. We determine whether your portfolio, as invested, is in compliance with your Investment Policy Statement.

By listening first, and understanding your larger picture, we can offer the relevant advice you seek, address your concerns and goals, and prioritize our recommendations by their potential to positively impact your investment performance.
