Asset Management

Harnessing the Power of the Global Capital Markets to Help Affluent Individuals and Families Achieve Their Investment Goals

Overview

Helping You Define Your “Why?”

Every dollar invested has a goal. Whether it is used to buy a new home, pay for college, fund retirement, or leave to the next generation, each dollar you choose to invest has a purpose. At Granite Harbor Advisors, we help you articulate that purpose and create a logical, efficient, evidence-based portfolio to support that purpose.

Our Investment Philosophy

A Strategic Approach to Your Financial Goals

asset-management.webp

Invest Rationally:

Portfolio construction should be based on fact rather than opinion. Investors often allow emotions to guide their investment decisions. Instead, a portfolio should be constructed utilizing financial and economic research without sacrificing the benefits of diversification.

Invest Efficiently:

Global securities markets are the most efficient determinant of security pricing. A well-diversified portfolio which minimizes the risk of any single security is the most appropriate means of capturing global market efficiency.

Invest with Confidence:

Portfolios dependent upon opinions regarding the market will cause undue stress and anxiety, which leads to poor decision-making. Constructing an efficient portfolio based on science and economic research gives investors the confidence and discipline to remain committed to their investment strategy.

Invest with Purpose:

A successful investment experience is based around achieving a stated goal. The more specifically a goal is articulated, the higher the likelihood of a portfolio meeting an investor’s expectations.
