The firm's overall investment policy is based on the principles of modern portfolio theory, but with some modifications for today's market environment and customized to your investment time horizon and risk tolerance. In other words, consideration of asset classes other than simply stocks and bonds is necessary in a well diversified investment portfolio; this can include modest exposure to commodities, private debt/ equity or other alternative investments. 

In general, both actively managed and targeted index exchange traded funds (ETFs) and mutual funds are utilized, with a focus on low-fee funds demonstrating long-term performance. Individual stocks and other assets may be used where appropriate, in the context of a diversified investment portfolio.
