A few words about investment
risk. It is impossible to totally eradicate risk from savings and investment.
Even deposit accounts are at risk from the financial security of the underlying
institution and inflation. However, we work very hard to understand the
risk tolerance of our clients allied to their agreed requirements detailed
within the Intelligent Wealth Plan to ensure that any solutions we offer
are suitable and acceptable.

Risk can be mitigated and managed via suitable asset allocation.
This means we will actively review a clients portfolio to ensure that
managers we have chosen are replaced if their performance drops significantly
and investment classes and styles will also be constantly monitored to
take account of changing economic circumstances.
Diversification:
- is the most common way to manage risk by not placing
all of your eggs in the same basket
- assumes you can’t be right all of the time - it
hedges your bets by investing across the spectrum of asset classes,
investment styles and money managers
- is a prudent and effective way to invest
- is an investment approach designed to meet a client’s
long-term goals in conjunction with the expertise of Investment Quorum
- is designed to counter prolonged periods of rises or
falls in the prices of stocks and bonds which are part of the normal
investment cycle
