Asset management is tailored to the client (click on our model portfolios: “Meta-Folios^SM” for more details) and may include business planning and investment management, employer sponsored plans such as retirement and stock options, succession planning, or separately managed accounts with further customized strategies.

We offer employer sponsored, defined contribution retirement plans through our partnership with Social K, providing over 2000 funds (over 150 SRI funds, plus thousands of your traditional top performers, like Goldman Sachs, Vanguard and so many others).  Through our unique partnership with Social K, we can offer many of these funds as no or low load mutual funds, including a variety of actively managed funds, index funds and lifestyle funds.  Smith Pierce can provide all services of the investment advisory relationship, including asset allocation and strategy, fund specification and ongoing management, or at any other level the participant desires.  Smith Pierce will coordinate with your benefits department and assist the institution with investment policy statements, as well as conduct quarterly reviews with upper management and participating employees, who will have around the clock full access to their accounts in a secure online environment.

For our separately managed accounts (SMAs), we may include some of the following investment approaches:

         - Hedging for macroeconomic trends in specific market segments
         - Utilizing protective puts to proactively hedge against microeconomic short-term risks
         - Administering highly active strategic positioning to further enhance ROI, which may be associated with

                >> Aggressive growth

                >> Alternative investments

                >> Potential anomalies characteristic within a particular industry

                >> Interrelated aggressive cyclical strategies

We also offer several industry/sector specific specialized SRI baskets (Micro-Folios^SM) as Separately Managed Accounts, to enhance positions and/or portfolio construction:

                >> Water Resources (SMA)
                >> Sustainable Leaders (SMA)
                >> Renewable Energy (SMA)
                >> Organics (SMA)
                >> Green Building (SMA)
                >> Bio-Pharma (SMA)
                >> Eco-Travel (SMA) 

While asset management will necessarily vary depending upon the needs and objectives of each client, our core strategies focus on long-term, sustainable growth across fundamentally attractive companies in various market segments. 

However, in appropriate accounts we may also utilize our expertise to leverage the potential aggressive growth associated with promising undervalued companies.  While these accounts will typically have increased exposures to market and other related risks, through extensive research, stress tests and other methods including derivatives trading, Smith Pierce is able to target the potential for explosive short to mid-term growth with many of these firms while simultaneously offering very favorable long-term prospects.

Through our broker/dealer and other third-party affiliations, Smith Pierce has access to more than 80 global exchanges with a variety of investment vehicles, coupled with precise execution and unparalleled research methods and tools.  We believe that these attributes complement our investment management capabilities while also gaining access for our clients to exclusive investment vehicles, objectivity, and the advantages of a fully independent and innovative SRI RIA firm.
