A focus on asset allocation
A key area we consider when developing strategies to optimize your retirement portfolio is your asset allocation.

2 Alternative Investment Strategies include fund of hedge fund strategies, managed futures vehicles, structured products, equipment leasing partnerships, real estate investment trusts (REITs) and oil and gas partnerships.
Alternative investments may not be suitable for all investors and should be considered as an investment for the risk capital portion of the investor's portfolio. The strategies employed in the management of alternative investmentsmay accelerate the velocity of potential loss. No strategy ensures a profit or protects against loss. Investing involves risk including possible loss of principal. Tactical allocation may involve more frequent buying and selling of assets and will tend to general higher transaction cost. Investors should consider the tax consequences of moving positions more frequently.
