Asset Allocation

If you are one of many Americans who believes your best investment strategy is to buy low and sell high, you may want to explore the possibilities of asset allocation. Asset allocation is the decision of what percentage of your assets are invested in various asset classes. Strategic asset allocation involves establishing different weightings for various asset classes and making few changes in those weightings over the short run. As a result, although no investment strategy can guarantee success, a properly allocated portfolio may be more likely to participate in positive investment trends while at the same time reducing volatility when the investment climate changes.

The asset weightings in your portfolio will depend on your individual needs and financial objectives. As your lifestyle changes, you can, with the help of your financial advisor, change the weightings in your portfolio to reflect your changing goals. For example, in your early investment years, you will probably want a larger portion of your assets invested in equities, for long-term growth. Although past performance cannot guarantee future results, equities have historically outperformed other investment vehicles. As you get older and need to start investing more conservatively, you will probably want to start shifting more of you assets into less volatile investment vehicles, such as fixed income investments. 

401(k) Rollover Services

If you are changing jobs, retiring, or have been laid off, selecting a distribution option for your 401(k) plan can be a critical decision. Selecting the way you receive your distribution before evaluating all your options can be a costly mistake.

FREE 401(k) Rollover Analysis Including:

  • Exploring your distribution options.
  • Avoiding the 20% withholding trap.
  • Discovering how to take control of your retirement savings.
  • Learn how to stretch your IRA benefits to your heirs (an option not available in a 401(k).
  • Deciding whether a rollover IRA is right for you.
  • Discuss how to access your retirement assets prior to age 59 1/2 - WITHOUT A PENALTY.

Investment Portfolio Analysis

In today’s investment climate, constant attention to your portfolio has never been more important. I keep continuously monitoring your portfolio to make certain that your investments are inline with your objectives. I communicate regularly with you through person-to-person meetings, e-mail, letters, statements, and phone calls.

When your risk tolerance changes or when current market conditions dictate changes, recommendations are made in your portfolio to bring it in-line with your objectives. Whether your investment objective is to protect your investment and draw income or to grow your investment for the long term of retirement, I will continuously monitor your investment plan to make certain it meets your needs. 

The cornerstone of our business is providing the highest level of unbiased financial services and advice, so I can concentrate our time and energies not on products and quotas and sales goals, but on understanding your individual financial goals. 

Portfolio Reviews

When was the last time your financial advisor called or suggested rebalancing your portfolio? What risk strategies do you have in place to minimize further erosion of your nest egg or retirement account? 

I do not presume to have all the answers - these are complicated times. What I do know is that frequent communications with clients enables me to help them respond to changing market conditions and events in their personal lives that may precipitate portfolio adjustments. 

COMPLIMENTARY AND THOROUGH PORTFOLIO REVIEW 

I would like to offer you a no-obligation portfolio review and consultation or an insurance review analysis as a way of introducing my services to you. I will evaluate your current situation in light of your objectives and offer sound, objective investment planning guidance. 

As an independent representative of Centaurus Financial Inc., I have access to the research, resources, and technology of a market leader - offering you state-of-the-art investment solutions and superior service. Centaurus Financial does not create its own investment products, nor does it engage in investment banking activities. Consequently, we can confidently select and recommend only those investments that are best suited for your situation.
