INVESTMENT POLICY

While each client is unique and brings his or her own set of circumstances to the investment planning process, the goal is to manage risk and maximize earnings. We believe our approach to investment management helps to reduce risk and increases the potenetial for success. By diversifing assets, our clients are positioned to take advantage of market fluctuations. We take a long-term approach to investing. We do not try to "time" the markets. Our clients strive for sustained investment performance to create long-term wealth and do not engage in daily stock trading. One strategy we employ is "Dollar Cost Averaging Strategy." We have proven that creating and maintaining wealth is accomplished by staying focused on goals and monitoring investment performance over time. It is our obligation and desire to listen to our clients' dreams and goals.

There is no guarantee that a diversified portfolio will enhance overall returns or outperform a non-diversified portfolio. Diversification does not protect against market risk.

Dollar cost averaging involves continuous investment in securities regardless of fluctuation in price levels of such securities. An investor should consider their ability to continue purchasing through fluctuating price levels. Such a plan does not assure a profit and does not protect against loss in declining markets.
