Portfolio Construction |
Bank of America Private Bank’s goal is to construct an investment portfolio that meets clients’ goals and objectives. They begin with an asset allocation process based on long-term (multiple market cycle) performance expectations for various asset classes. They determine asset classes, and portfolio-weighting combinations of those classes, to best maximize expected return potential for given levels of risk, or to reduce risk for given levels of expected return potential. They then recommend a portfolio with risk/return characteristics that meet their clients’ long-term investment objectives.
Centered on a mission-aligned approach to investing, Bank of America Private Bank developed its fiduciary institutional investment management process. They utilize a customized investment strategy that integrates their clients’ short- and long-term goals, objectives, and risk tolerance. |
