Customized investment portfolios aligned with your goals, risk tolerance, and long-term financial objectives.
Studdard Financial was formed in 2003 with the goal of using active management to help smooth out the ups and downs of the stock market. That remains the approach: portfolios are managed deliberately rather than left to drift.
A portfolio is not a product list. It is the engine behind the plan, and the way it is built should follow from what the money has to do — and when.
Allocations built around your goals, risk tolerance, time horizon and need for principal protection.
Ongoing management of the portfolio rather than a set-and-forget allocation.
Understanding how ETFs, mutual funds and closed-end funds actually differ in pricing, leverage, liquidity, cost and tax treatment.
Where income-producing holdings such as preferred stock may or may not fit, and the risks that come with them.
Using market, limit and stop orders appropriately rather than by default.
Reviewing the portfolio against the plan, not against a benchmark alone.
Studdard Financial is a fee-only fiduciary registered investment adviser. Compensation comes from clients, not from commissions on the investments recommended. Advice should be built around your goals, risk tolerance, time horizon and need for principal protection — not around what pays the adviser more.
