Investment Consulting

As with any journey, you and your advisor will need to take stock of exactly where you are today, where you want to be in the future, and what assets can be brought to bear before charting a course. As an independent office, Security First Advisors does not offer proprietary investment products. We maintain a fully independent and objective vantage point to provide investment advise on asset allocation, manager selection, portfolio construction all focused on the specific needs of each client.

Set Goals:

The one thing your investment plan can't function without having is, YOU. Our process follows an intentional set of steps that centers around what is most important to you. We will help you articulate goals and dreams while defining appropriate measures for success. This is accomplished by developing a total wealth profile that encompasses your entire financial picture.

Asset Allocation:

An important step in determining your portfolio’s overall performance is the asset allocation. Here our education, experience, and training truly come into play. In working to achieve the suitable asset allocation strategy, you can potentially reduce risk while maintaining a desired level of return or conversely potentially increase return while maintaining a given level of risk. Consequently, our process of considering your investment objectives and investor profile, will allow us to help you choose a mix of asset classes and styles that will fit your personalized investment portfolio.

Investment Selection:

The next step in this process is to select the specific investments that make up your portfolio. Just as with any ship using the wrong sail under certain conditions can lead to disastrous results, improper investment allocation can also lead one to end up on the rocks. Proper asset allocation of your investment dollars among equities, fixed-income, and cash according to your risk tolerance, investment objectives, and market conditions is vital in determining your long-term investment results

Portfolio Review:

We will help you review your investment portfolio and keep you apprised of major developments that may affect your investment choices or asset allocation. While maintaining your portfolio, we will also seek to understand any changes in your goals and/or objectives that may lead us to provide, if necessary, qualified advice on how and when to make changes to your portfolio allocation.

Active Management

We apply a healthy dose of skepticism to the latest trends and results that are to good to be true. Rather, our focus places our emphasis on solutions that offer constructive risk-and-return exposure that will help each client reach their financial goals. Our approach involves identifying and favoring managers that can be nimble and adaptive to mitigate risk.

Throughout our process we will listen and talk with you until we gain a complete wealth profile that encompasses your entire financial picture.
