Ways to Help Reduce Investment Risk
The world is quick to change, but that shouldn’t drastically affect your investments. That’s why our plans keep change in mind - we want to help you protect your portfolio from outside influences.
Here's how we help you reduce risk
Most finanical advisors attempt to reduce risk through asset allocation—diversifying across asset classes. While effective in theory, history has shown that in periods like 2008 or even 2020, diversification alone doesn’t always protect investors. At 345 Wealth Management, we go further. We not only diversify across asset classes but also across tax location to help reduce the tax burden when you are looking to take distributions.
Asset Allocation is a method of diversification which positions assets among major investment categories. This tool may be used in an effort to manage risk and enhance returns. However, it does not guarantee a profit or protect against a loss.
Strategic
Our strategic approach builds on traditional asset allocation by diversifying across asset classes to help you reduce investment risk. The difference is we don’t simply buy and hold—we take a more active, strategic approach designed to adapt to changing markets and protect your portfolio through every cycle.
Tactical
Tactical money management is a more forward-looking, and more defensive style of asset management. Our tactical managers have the autonomy to make substantial allocation shifts based on market and economic conditions, with the primary objective being to avoid considerable loss.
Hedge
Our hedge approach is designed with types of investments that offer a layer of downside principal protection with potential for market upside in our clients' portfolios. These strategies are designed to provide financial confidence when the next market correction happens. This helps ensure they will be able to maintain their lifestyle, regardless of events that they cannot control.
Alternative
Alternative investments provide access to opportunities outside traditional markets—such as private credit and real estate—that typically move independently of stocks and bonds. By incorporating alternatives, we can enhance diversification and help reduce overall portfolio risk and volatility.
