The investment policy concentrates on three broad areas:
- Growth of capital - the policy pursues
high level return on the investments through the appreciation
of capital. The growth of capital policy presumes investing in
securities having higher growth potential. Among those are various
tech stocks, stocks of currently undervalued corporations (including
large and medium-size entities), shares of mutual fund investing
in undervalued sectors, stock options, and other derivatives.
The risk of the investments may be substantially higher than those
of investments in securities being purchased under terms of the
income of balanced investment policies.
- Income - the objective here is to provide
current income through investing in moderately risky or no-risk
securities including bonds, certificates of deposit, and money
market. The income level derived from the investments is planned
to be higher than the inflation rate though it may from time to
time plunge below the inflation rate due to changes in interest
rates effected by the Federal Reserve System, downgrades of the
issuers' credit ratings, worsening of the issuers' profitability,
and other reasons which add up to systematic and specific risks.
- Balanced - this approach pursues a
reasonable rate of return through a combination of investments
appropriate for implementation of growth of capital and income
policies. This portfolio may include investments in undervalued
stocks and derivatives as well as investments in bonds, certificates
of deposit, and money market funds. The portfolio tend to provide
higher diversification though the portfolio value may decrease
from time to time due to systematic and specific risks.
