Investment due diligence

Our team of experts research, evaluate and select Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) for your portfolio.1 ETFs offer a way to pool money in a fund that makes investments in stocks, bonds and/or other assets. ETF shares are traded throughout the day on national stock exchanges and at market prices and provide you with low-cost, broad exposure to U.S. and international markets across stock, bond and real estate markets. 

Market outlook

Our investment strategists analyze the market to determine the type and amount of each ETF in the portfolios. When our market outlook changes, we automatically update your portfolio.

Your investment goal and target date

If you’re planning for a large purchase, for retirement or other goals you’d like to reach, we’ll automatically adjust your investments to reduce the amount of risk in your portfolio as you approach your target date.

Tax efficiency

We review every account we manage for you for its tax status. For taxable accounts, we automatically seek to offset taxes on capital gains by selling other investments at a loss. The cash will be reinvested across your portfolio to help keep your portfolio in balance and on track with your goal.

Your risk comfort level

This instructs us as to how much risk we should take for your investments. We create your portfolio depending on the risk level you choose and help you to determine your comfort with risk with a three-question quiz.
