Our Investment Approach
The Income Model is a strategy that seeks to focus on income through a diverse portfolio of fixed income and fixed income-like equity positions.
Our income first, growth second approach generates renewable income streams that can fund recurring retirement expenses while seeking to help preserve and grow investment principal over the long-term. It’s a sound, long-term investment strategy that eliminates the need to rely on the 4% withdrawal rule.
Why? Because your clients are earning the interest and dividends, and not withdrawing principal, which is really the only way for them to know that their retirement savings will last a lifetime.
To accomplish this, we avoid mutual funds and focus on individual, income-generating securities that can be customized and managed for specific client investment needs.
Advantages of individual securities include better:
- Justification of your management fee
- Transparency
- Client retention in a down market
- Tax management
By being willing to stray away from a short-term benchmark, skilled investment managers can focus on delivering a more secure and reliable, year-over-year income, and opportunistically manage through volatility.
A properly managed, income-oriented portfolio can successfully seek to deliver both short-term and long-term return outperformance to help solve most challenges investors face when investing for a more successful, sustainable retirement.
That is where Sound Income Strategies can help to set you apart. By working together, we can help you find sound and innovative solutions for all your clients’ current income, and longer-term retirement needs.
