Investment Approach

Singer & Friedlander Investment Management (SFIM) delivers a bespoke investment management capability for its clients.

The dedicated services of your investment manager ensure that your needs and requirements are fully met, and that any changes in your circumstances are swiftly reflected in your portfolio.

Our investment managers are supported by a disciplined investment process. They and their team will be fully conversant with your requirements and as such will be able to ensure that the process is implemented in an appropriate fashion.

As forward thinking investors, SFIM uses a broad range of asset classes in portfolio construction and espouses a world investment view. However, we are not slaves to the current investment fashion and only utilise asset classes when investment is deemed attractive and as appropriate to a clients' needs.

We believe that over the long term no single investment style will be proved to be dominant or correct. Different styles are appropriate at differing times of the economic and investment cycle. Consequently, we tend to follow a pragmatic approach and, in order to maintain a balanced approach to risk, clients may well, therefore, find that their portfolio has a mixture of growth, value or defensive investments at any one time.

SFIM's investment managers are highly experienced and value the breadth of research available to them from both in-house and market sources. Regular discussions amongst the peer group help deliver a continual flow of ideas, backed up by sector and stock research. Timing of investment can be key to long term performance, the investment manager is therefore responsible for the timely implementation of these ideas in your portfolio, always mindful of your specified objectives.

Risk

Diversification of risk is an essential element of any portfolio structure. We believe that a portfolio should be constructed to ensure that the fund is not disproportionately exposed to the fortunes of one geographic region, industrial sector or single corporate entity. We use collective investment schemes where appropriate, in order to maximise diversification and minimise any stock-specific risk. The investment team continually monitor investments to ensure their appropriateness for a client's needs.

 

Singer & Friedlander Investment Management Limited is Authorised & Regulated by the Financial Services Authority.
