| At Campbell
Newman, our goal is to ensure that your portfolio is well positioned
to meetand exceedyour objectives over time. We achieve
this through the implementation of a sound, methodical approach that
utilizes customized portfolios, rather than mutual funds or commingled
accounts, to meet your investment |
policy,
tax and legal requirements. Our investment philosophy is based upon
the standard that asset allocation is one of the most important factors
to investment success. That is why we employ multiple strategies,
including growth equity, dividend growth equity, core fixed income, tax-advantaged fixed income and a balanced approach to meet your needs. |
Three
elements distinguish our investment process and help us add value regardless
of market conditions:
1.
A disciplined investment approach.
A.
Our time-tested, four-step investment process begins with a thorough
understanding of your investment goals.
B.
Once your investment objectives have been established, we
build an individualized portfolio based upon an optimal asset
allocation designed to help you maximize your returns while controlling
risk.
C.
Then, we continue to monitor
the market for new opportunities.
D.
And finally, we rebalance
your portfolio on a periodic basis, as your needs change or
market conditions warrant.
2.
Teamwork. We believe that top performance is not achieved through
the efforts of one individual. It takes teamwork and experience. That
is why we do not have a "star" money manager at Campbell Newman Asset
Management, but rather utilize the collective talents of an investment
management team. The Investment Committee, which is composed of portfolio
managers and research analysts, is our investment "think-tank." Here,
new investment ideas are recommended, existing holdings are reviewed and
economic and market trends are monitored. The Security Selection Committee,
which is composed of the firm's senior managers, is responsible for establishing
overall investment strategy. They make all buy and sell decisions for
the portfolios. Each portfolio manager then implements these recommendations
while maintaining the flexibility to incorporate any specific needs into
your portfolio.
3.
Active management. As dedicated, bottom-up stock pickers, our
goal is to produce attractive investment results by owning a select group of superior companies. Each stock is carefully selected and regularly
evaluated to ensure our clients receive consistency in investment strategy
and results.
