Our difference? Individually managed accounts for every client.
An individually managed account is a professionally managed portfolio of securities that are owned directly by the client. Unlike mutual funds, these assets aren’t commingled with those of other investors. That means we can customize the investments to reflect your personal preferences, and manage these accounts for minimum tax impact. In short, you get all the benefits of professional money management with the flexibility, control, and potential tax advantages of owning individual securities. In the past, individually managed accounts were only an option for the very wealthy investor. Using advanced technology, experience,
and resources, Probity Advisors has made these customized portfolios available to a broader range of clients, so more people can take advantage of the benefits.
What makes individually managed accounts better?
Customization
Probity Advisors customizes every portfolio around our client’s need for growth or income, social and moral concerns, and tax liabilities.
Tax Sensitivity
Investors in mutual funds can be exposed to unanticipated tax liabilities, resulting from excessive trading or prior capital gains, which can negatively impact the portfolio’s overall
performance. Individually managed accounts help minimize tax liability by managing securities with the individual investor’s tax consequences in mind.
Individual Market Entry and Exit
With individually managed accounts, security sale and purchase points can be carefully selected or targeted. This strategy provides the opportunity for enhanced returns but creates a cost basis and profit/loss that are unique to the individual – unlike pooled accounts, where investors could share tax liability, regardless of personal gain.
Diversification
Investments are allocated in a variety of investment styles and disciplines to better insulate the portfolio from market fluctuations.
Transparency
Clients are always aware of the investments they hold, and better informed of the fees charged to the account.
Personal portfolio. Personal service.
Some say it. We do it. Probity Advisors keeps the communication going, from our first meeting on. You can expect a level of access you’ve never had before, and a higher level of commitment from everyone at our firm. Our mission is simple – to empower clients through solid, individualized financial management. And we deliver on that promise every day.
