Independent Investment Review
Whether you manage your own investments or pay someone to manage them for you, it makes sense to get a second opinion, an independent portfolio investment review. At Luna Capital Management we are very committed to making sure that investors have a clear understanding of their investment holdings and their associated costs and risks.
There are many reasons for this type of independent review. Maybe your long-term investment strategy was “buy and hold” or maybe an investment advisor or portfolio manager is taking you for granted not giving your investments the attention required. In this environment of instant information flow and technology-driven investment solutions, investors or their advisors should be aware of what they are invested in and the reason they own the investment.
Why should I do this review?
- Your portfolio may consist of mutual funds whose management expense ratios are greater than 2 percent. The compounding effect of higher than above average fees can significantly drag down your returns.
- Does your investment portfolio have a clear strategy with a balanced risk-adjusted approach, or does it consist of a random collection of investments?
- Do you own a complex investment product that you do not fully understand and may carry an above-average expense?
- Are your returns acceptable? Is your portfolio properly benchmarked or compared to an appropriate index?
- Are you taking too much or too little risk for your age or investment policy?
- Are you using the best possible investment approach for your particular situation? Are you utilizing all available investments with a focus on a lower-cost solution?
