Fiduciary Consulting Services
Who is this for?
Non-profits Seeking Investment Advisory & Consulting Services
Two Key Areas of Focus
Investment Policy Statement (IPS)
An IPS is your organization’s Policies and Procedures manual that dictates an investment program’s standards for operation. It establishes expectations, assigns responsibilities, and when used correctly, may reduce liability and improve portfolio performance.
Investment Program Oversight
Having an IPS is one thing, using it correctly is another. In addition, some organizations prefer to have in-house investment management or already have a long-term investment manager, but feel they need additional support managing their fiduciary responsibilities. Working with a professional Investment Advisor to help oversee your organization’s investment program allows you flexibility without giving up control.
