Investment Management – Service Overview

SAF utilizes many practices found in Modern Portfolio Theory and Quantitative Investing to help our clients meet or exceed their investing goals, no matter the financial environment. Layered onto this strategic portfolio allocation is our technically driven “Risk Protocol,” a strategy forged in the ‘08 Global Financial Crisis which prioritizes capital preservation during severe market stress. We believe this approach separates us from other wealth managers, paving the way for more consistent risk-adjusted returns.
