What we do

The KW Wealth investment process has one over-arching objective, which is to deliver consistent investment outcomes to clients with consistent goals. They do this through six steps, each of which is designed to be measurable and repeatable. This provides KW with the ability to monitor and evaluate the success of their decision making and to identify where it has added or detracted value. These six steps combine to provide an efficient method for investing their clients’ money. They also allow their clients (and KW themselves) to clearly see how and why their money is being invested in a particular way and, most importantly, that it is consistent with their goals. This investment process has been tested and refined over many years. The investment portfolios created are based around their clients’ time horizon and risk tolerance. Diversification and risk management are incorporated into the process and are key to the success of the portfolio. This process allows KW to deliver truly personalised portfolio management at relatively low cost, and with clearly established risk controls. The process is cyclical and has the following parts to it:

1. Fact finding and the identification of the client’s needs and goals to develop their investment profile.
2. Translating the client’s investment profile into their investment strategy.
3. The design, construction and investment of the portfolio best expected to deliver against the strategy.
4. The day to day monitoring and management of the portfolio.
5. The measurement of portfolio performance against the strategy.
6. The reporting of the portfolio’s progress in delivering the client’s goals.
