Personalized Service

We provide discretionary investment management for Individuals. We design and maintain customized investment portfolios for each client that range from conservative to aggressive, depending on the client’s needs for income, return and risk. For smaller accounts, we emphasize ETF’s (exchange traded funds) and for larger accounts we invest primarily in bonds and common stocks.
