Different investment solutions for lump sum investments
As a financial planner I help clients who are looking to invest a lump sum find a solution by determining the most appropriate route based on their needs and wants.
Most portfolio constructions combine index trackers and actively managed funds to minimise the risk of underperformance whilst at the same time keeping costs low.
Discretionary Investment Management?
Who for: Typically, investment value above 500,000 CHF
Discretionary Investment Management is where the Investment Manager – the person making decisions with regards to the most appropriate balance of investments in a portfolio – has discretion to make changes to your portfolio as and when they deem appropriate.
The Investment Manager does not need to write to you each time they wish to make a change, they can simply make this change without prior approval. They’re responsible for the day-to-day management of your portfolio and can make small or larger adjustments as they see fit.
Set parameters are agreed at the outset within which the Discretionary Investment Manager can make their changes. This can also include specific investment mandates, for example, if your objective is to invest ethically, or to exclude exposure to certain stocks.
Managed Portfolio Service (MPS)
Who for: Typically, investment value above 250,000 CHF
Let me outline the benefits of an Investment Manager's MPS.
An MPS offers a more coordinated approach to investing, where the balance of exposures to different risks can be expertly managed, rather than a more onerous approach of self-investing. An MPS is also able to access institutional assets, that private investors cannot.
Robo-advisor
Who for: Those who are starting to build their wealth
This has not proved to be the solution that clients were expecting it to be, because the Robo-advisors don’t understand money related issues and concerns.
Robo-advisors use algorithms to understand and predict investor preferences, risk, and goals. Usually, they do this by asking a set of psychographic and demographic questions that leads to a model portfolio. The most basic profile questionnaire will include queries on gender, income, liabilities, willingness to take on risk, and current asset allocation.
Robo-advisors could be used in the future to do the initial assessment to reduce time spent by an advisor to make financial planning accessible to a wider audience not just the wealthy.
