Financial Planning and Investment Management
By working with each client on a direct investment approach,
free from obligation to invest in specific funds, Carroll, Pike
& Piercy becomes your personal wealth manager.
We believe the financial planning industry fails higher net
worth clients by relying on commission-based fee structures and
managed funds, leading to inadequate transparency,
accountability and performance.
Managed funds were originally formed to cater for smaller
investors with insufficient funds for an adequate spread of
investments themselves. The hitch is that costs are high and
this can reduce overall returns.
Those with sums to invest in excess of $500,000 have
sufficient capital to achieve a suitable spread of risk through
asset allocation and stock diversification. Since 1999, Carroll,
Pike & Piercy have established a process which provides
investors with ongoing advice in relation to their diversified
portfolio of direct investments.
Risk is managed through adherence to a strict asset
allocation and stock selection process mirroring the prudential
requirements of the Trustee Act and the Guardianship and
Administration Board, which oversees the management of Protected
Estates.
Our dedicated team of professionals craft individual
investment portfolios based on the pre-requisites for
administering trust funds under the Trustee Act:
- Capital preservation (asset allocation)
- High income production (individual stock selection)
- Capital growth
