Improving investment outcomes
In today's digital world, where investment advice is plentiful and free, you might wonder why you should pay for a discretionary fund manager service. Here’s why it’s worth considering.
A discretionary fund management service (DFM) is provided by highly skilled investment professionals who have a track record of delivering outstanding performance for both individual and corporate clients. They bring expertise and experience that free online advice simply can't match.
While some believe that online tips and DIY strategies are sufficient to manage an investment portfolio, we strongly disagree. Our experience shows that those who try this often end up with disappointing results they'd rather forget. Here’s what you need to think about before investing your hard-earned money:
• Setting your investment objective
• Determining your investment time horizon
• Deciding how much to invest
• Planning your exit strategy
• Assessing the appropriate level of risk for your investment portfolio
Many investors start with DIY investing, often based on tips from friends or articles. Unfortunately, these recommendations usually fall short because they lack the thorough due diligence required for successful investing.
Proper analysis involves a disciplined approach and access to critical data not readily available to the public. Private investors often don't have this level of access, putting them at a disadvantage compared to professional discretionary fund managers.

Assessing and rebalancing portfolio risk is crucial for successful investments, whether you’re an individual investor or part of a discretionary fund management (DFM) firm. These tasks aren't something you can set and forget; they require ongoing, detailed attention.
Understanding global market movements requires extensive data analysis. Without thorough reviews and constant monitoring, a portfolio can quickly go off course, leading to significant losses.
Discretionary fund managers employ full-time specialists around the world who focus on different markets. They continuously research and evaluate market weaknesses and opportunities, scrutinising both fund managers and the companies they invest in. This meticulous process directly benefits client portfolios.
This level of detail sets discretionary fund managers apart from private investors, who often lack the time and resources for high-quality research. One major advantage of discretionary fund managers is their access to expensive institutional data and exclusive less costly institutional asset classes, which offer significant discounts and are generally unavailable to individual investors.
Without these resources and expertise, private investors can easily miss out on opportunities or poorly time their asset purchases and sales.
