Palisades Hudson’s investment philosophy focuses on asset allocation and
long-term, disciplined investing. Palisades Hudson creates an asset allocation for
each active management and trust management client that is consistent with the
client’s risk tolerance and short- and long-term planning objectives. We seek to
balance growth and security by building diversified portfolios comprised of cash
equivalents, fixed-income securities, alternative investments, and U.S. large-cap,
U.S. small-cap, international, natural resources, and real estate equities. We
attempt to manage risk by investing in carefully researched securities, with
analysts monitoring each asset class, as well as each security. Clients may impose
restrictions on investing in certain securities or types of securities.
Palisades Hudson primarily uses open-end mutual funds and exchange-traded
funds to implement the investment strategies developed for its clients. We avoid
short-term trading and market timing strategies, which we believe are
counterproductive. We typically do not pick individual stocks or bonds.
However, we will evaluate existing positions that clients place under the firm’s
management to determine whether or not these securities are appropriate given
the client’s asset allocation and investment
strategy. Each investment is selected
in accordance with the client’s target asset allocation.
