Investment Management

Diligence, Discipline and Integrity to Deliver Consistent Returns

A successful investment strategy requires a clearly defined set of goals and objectives. The portfolios that we manage at CFAL have explicit return objectives, a framework for measuring progress towards the goal and limits on the amount of risk we take in trying to achieve the objective. This comprehensive strategy is designed to help clients stay on track in good times and bad.  Our experienced and knowledgeable investment team is committed to providing institutions with superior returns utilizing our time-proven principles of investing. We are also able to design an appropriate mix of fixed income and equity securities that provides a portfolio consistent with the risk and return objectives of each institutional client.

 

Our Overall Investment Strategy:

At CFAL, we have implemented a “top down” approach to our Investment Management Services. Our philosophy is based on conservative, time proven standards of fundamental investing. We continually strive to deliver a consistent return for the level of risk assumed. Our core values of diligence, discipline and integrity have helped and will always guide our investment practices.

 

Our Equities Investment Strategy

The market can be extremely volatile at times, and selecting stocks based on sound investment principles can help minimize risk and add more value to your portfolio.

Companies are considered based on a comprehensive review of the following:

  • Company’s economic viability (we review and examine all financial reports)
  • Sustainable future growth
  • Management Capabilities
  • Strong core competencies
