x Investment Process Overview

Beechwood Wealth Advisors LLC. follows a well-defined, time-proven process to increase the probability that you will meet your financial objectives.

We designed this program to replicate at each level the intricate and highly disciplined approach that institutional money managers use in the management of large pools of pension assets.

Your portfolio strategy begins with a personalized investment analysis, then graduates through the portfolio construction process, in which multiple asset classes, multiple style allocations and multiple specialist money managers are combined to meet your investment objectives.

The result is a well-tuned, five-step asset management process designed to respond to your individual needs while also responding to the dynamics of capital markets.

x A Five-Step Asset Management Process to a Successful Financial Future

1 Through personal consultations with you, we develop a personal profile of your individual investment needs and objectives, time horizon and attitude toward investing.

2 We develop a personalized asset allocation policy based on your needs and objectives as identified in Step 1. This policy maximizes your investment returns relative to your risk tolerance through the carefully diversified allocation of your investments.

3 Your asset allocation policy is implemented by investing in a well-diversified portfolio and is managed by preeminent institutional money management firms, not normally accessible to an individual investor.

4 Your investment portfolio is carefully monitored on an ongoing basis to ensure that it remains consistent with your agreed-upon asset allocation policy. If the relative value of investments in your portfolio changes enough to become inconsistent with this policy, it is rebalanced.

5 We will communicate with you on a regular basis and provide a comprehensive reporting package including account level performance reports and statements providing details of your account – including total asset value and a record of all transactions that occurred during the reporting period.

x Multiple Manager Approach

Your portfolio is diversified by utilizing multiple specialist managers combined in a “style-neutral” approach. The U.S. stock portion of your portfolio is diversified by blending four mutually exclusive equity styles – large company stocks with a growth orientation, large company stocks with a value orientation, small company stocks with a growth orientation and, finally, small company stocks with a value orientation. Furthermore, several distinct sub-styles have been identified within each of the four equity styles. Therefore, often three or more money managers will be hired to manage the sub-styles by contributing their own highly specialized investment expertise. The benefit of this approach is improved performance with reduced volatility. A style-neutral approach eliminates the virtually impossible task of attempting to predict which style of equity investing will be in favor at any given point in time.

The world view can no longer be limited to an exclusively U.S. perspective. Allocating a portion of assets to international stocks and fixed income investments further diversifies your portfolio. Since research has shown that there is a low correlation between the returns of international stocks and domestic stocks, the combination of the two has a favorable effect on the risk/return relationship of a portfolio. Investing up to 30% of your portfolio’s equity position in international equities can reduce your portfolio’s overall risk and improve its return.

Diversifying your portfolio by asset class, manager style, sub-style and sector tends to reduce risk while improving the prospects for long-term growth. For a view of a balanced portfolio (60% equities and 40% fixed income), click Sample Portfolio.
