Our Investment Philosophy
Our Investment Philosophy is embedded in Strategic Asset Allocation.
We craft our portfolios through the lens of Modern Portfolio Theory, adhering to prudent diversification and an acute assessment of risk and volatility.
Portfolios are tailored through a Core and Satellite approach that provides our clients with inexpensive Index exposure - complemented by ‘best in breed’ Active management.
These return (alpha) generators are sourced through constantly researched and thoroughly evaluated investment managers and their strategy/s.
Our Guiding Investment Fundamentals:
At O'Leary Financial Planning, we adhere to five core investment fundamentals that guide our approach to building and managing wealth. These principles, rooted in economic realities and time-tested strategies, form the backbone of our investment philosophy. They empower our clients to make informed decisions and achieve long-term financial success.
01
Have faith in capitalism:
Recognise that capitalism is a robust economic system that has delivered significant benefits to humanity.
Despite its flaws, it has lifted billions of people out of poverty and driven innovation and discovery.
02
Accept that risk and return go hand in hand:
Understand that to achieve higher returns, you must be willing to take on more risk. There is no such thing as high returns with low risk.
It is important to manage and understand the various risks associated with investing.
03
Let the markets do the heavy lifting for you:
Recognise that the markets are an efficient mechanism for rewarding those who provide capital to companies engaged in wealth creation.
Instead of trying to time the market or pick individual stocks, focus on constructing a well-diversified portfolio and capturing market returns through low-cost funds.
04
Be patient and think long-term:
Investing is a long-term game, and it takes time to achieve investment success. Avoid being swayed by short-term market fluctuations and focus on the long-term goals.
Understand that small returns can compound into significant differences over time.
05
Be disciplined:
Stick to your investment principles and avoid succumbing to impatience and emotional ill-discipline.
Construct a well-researched and tested portfolio, avoid chasing investments based on short-term performance, and resist the temptation to abandon your long-term strategy during market downturns.
Practice discipline in reviewing your portfolio and avoid being influenced by short-term market noise.
