INNOVATIVE TAX PLANNING TOOLS

By making use of Trusts, Self Invested Pension Plans, Venture Capital Trusts, Enterprise Zone Schemes and Limited Liability Partnerships for investments as well as a wide variety of other onshore and offhore arrangements, we are able to help clients make use of legitimate tax planning tools to reduce their tax burdens.

INNOVATIVE PORTFOLIO PLANNING

Asset allocation is a diversification strategy that works. A well balanced portfolio should be diversified amongst the major asset classes. Traditional rules of investing are still true but they must be adjusted periodically to fit the changing economic climate.

INNOVATIVE USE OF TECHNOLOGY

Investment portfolio construction and management is aided by complex software that helps analyse risk and asset allocation. Once constructed, your portfolio will be available to you online providing you with up to date valuations and trading information in an easy to
understand and user friendly package. 

PENSION PERFORMANCE PROGRAMME

For years people have been worrying about their pension funds because of negative press about under performing pensions both personal and company and a lack of clear information regarding pensions.  This has resulted in a negative view of pensions in general.
The importance of the investment element of pension plans has been underestimated and the concept of the Tax benefits alone has been the major driving force.
Through the use of detailed computer modelling, the Hart Pension Performance Programme provides an in depth analysis of your existing schemes focusing on charges, financial strength and performance of the underlying assets.
If you become a Hart Group client this is monitored on a regular basis to increase the overall growth and reduce the risk to your pension funds.
We provide our clients with an optimal mix of assets giving a higher potential return for any given level of risk and steadier investment growth than would otherwise be expected. 

THE HART INVESTMENT PROGRAMME

We follow proven methods of successful long term investing, providing our clients with the means to meet their investment objectives. The key areas of our programme are as follows:

Asset Allocation

Different investment types tend to rise and fall in value at different times, e.g. over the past few years the housing market has risen while the UK stock market has fallen. Harry Markowitz was awarded the Nobel Prize for his work showing that asset allocation is the most important factor in determining the performance of investment portfolios* a method that we adopt within the Hart Investment Programme.

Fund Selection

After assessing a suitable asset allocation mix for you, it is important to choose the most appropriate managers and funds within each sector. By selecting those fund management companies with special areas of expertise and those fund managers with a history of strong performance, an effective combination of funds can be compiled. Other factors we consider when recommending funds include:

• Consistency of fund performance
• Fund risk
• Value/growth orientation
• Small/large cap orientatio
• Fund size
• Industry holdings
• Underlying stock holdings
• Standard & Poors® star rating
• Fund correlations
• Manager tenure

   

* As shown by studies such as “Determinants of Portfolio Performance II: An Update,” Brinson, Singer & Beebower (1991)  ^ Harry M. Markowitz (b. 1927) was awarded the Nobel Prize for Economics in 1990 in conjunction with Merton H. Miller & William F. Sharpe for “their pioneering work in the theory of financial economics”
