'Armgard Strategy'
What are the main characteristics of our asset management?
• Simplicity - understandable investment product
• Flexible - easily switching to other markets
• Liquidity - investments in highly liquid ETF’s ( index trackers )
• Transparent - clear rates
Why do we differ from the usual asset management based on a client profile?
In your interest our asset management is 100 % flexible. We will immediately switch to other markets if necessary. This is in contrast to many other banks and asset managers. 100 % flexible, because it makes no sense to stay invested in i.e. equities when they are crashing while a rigid ‘client profile’ tells you to do so.
How did we build our management model?
In a distinctive way we manage your assets to ‘market development’. By using skilled econometricians, a unique and stable management model was developed over the years.
How does it work?
This strategy is applied to a very wide spread and yet clear portfolio. Using ETF’s, positions are actively and systematically monitored according to a strict observance of the management model. The positions are distributed among the asset classes: equities, bonds, commodities, real estate and cash.
What happens if we have to intervene?
If for example the trend of a stock ETF ( index tracker ) turns downward, we will sell the first half of that position and buy a diversified bond ETF. When a down trend is confirmed, this switch will be made also for the second half of that position. We do so, because we still remain partly involved with the rising trend in case of a "false move" / false move downward (and thus the upward trend continues).
Where do you transfer your assets?
On your behalf we will open an investment account in your name with a reputable custodian bank, to which account you can transfer your money safely. Your assets will be managed based on a so-called tripartite agreement.
