Investment Approach
Sigma's
investment strategy is simple: knowledge plus discipline equals
performance. Sigma's approach is clear: to invest your money with
carefully selected portfolio managers (through no-load mutual funds or private
accounts with individual managers) in an individually tailored combination that
reflects your specific short term needs and long term goals. By selecting
elite portfolio managers with varied investment styles, Sigma creates a
world-class, diversified, customized portfolio in a process similar to that used
by large institutional investors.
Knowledge
There are thousands of investment options
available to you, and there are now more mutual funds than there are stocks on
the New York Stock Exchange. Following these investment opportunities is a
full time job that requires both knowledge and discipline.
A key to Sigma's strategy is to access managers with different investment
approaches. Investing with only one portfolio manager or even several
managers working for the same investment company will not give you adequate
diversification if the managers follow a single investment style.
Sigma constantly reviews the universe of thousands of portfolio managers to
select a small number that will act as the key building blocks for your
portfolio. This elite group includes some of the world's best investors,
chosen because of their expertise in a particular investment style, consistency
of performance, and other stringent criteria.
plus Discipline
Knowledge of the investment
markets is worth little if it is not combined with the discipline to develop and
consistently follow an investment strategy related to your individual goals and
circumstances. Sigma begins its relationship with you by listening--and
then designing a portfolio tailored to meet your specific needs. By
relating each of your investments to a carefully crafted, overall investment
plan, Sigma also provides you with a framework and discipline to help you
achieve your financial goals.
