THE GOAL OF THIS PORTFOLIO:

Synergy uses individual stocks and/or ETFs to achieve equity-like performance results with a values-based philosophy. We seek to combine personal integrity with portfolio growth.

Faith-based strategies are subject to the same challenges as secular investments, and Synergy Asset Management applies its continual analysis, assessment, and market expertise to finding quality companies that are undervalued and poised for reasonable risk-adjusted returns. By using our unique Precision Investing strategy, we study the markets for fundamental and technical trends that send signals to sell, hold, or buy.

Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Strategy

At the core of our research process, we seek out investments that possess attractive valuations, strong relative strength, and momentum in the fundamentals – with the goal being to minimize risk and seek higher returns against benchmark by limiting the portfolio to 5-20 stocks and/or ETFs.
OVERALL STRATEGY:
The strategy begins by dynamically monitoring our ESG universe for companies with top tier MSCI ESG ratings, while also seeking companies with better or improving ESG performance relative to sector peers.

Tugboats

Dynamic Risk Models (DRM)

BEST FOR THIS TYPE OF INVESTOR:
Built for the loss-averse person who seeks risk-controlled asset allocation models.
THE GOAL OF THIS PORTFOLIO:

The goal of this portfolio is to maintain an acceptable level of risk through strategic asset allocation policies and tactical overlays.

OVERALL STRATEGY:

Regardless of your risk profile, the portfolio will be rebalanced quarterly with tactical adjustments made as appropriate.

Speedboats

Strategically Designed Tactically Dynamic (SDTD) Models

BEST FOR THIS TYPE OF INVESTOR:

Built for the risk-averse person who seeks a more traditional approach to asset allocation.

THE GOAL OF THIS PORTFOLIO:

To meet the investor where they feel most comfortable. The Speedboat model has everything from the 100% Bond for those who are most cautious, all the way to the 100% Equity which is ideal for investors who can tolerate substantial market fluctuation for the long term.

OVERALL STRATEGY:
No matter where the investor falls in this model, their portfolio will be rebalanced annually.

Sailboats

Focused Tactical Allocation (FTA) Models

Suitable for those investor who do not want to follow modern portfolio theory (MPT), as these are 100% tactical and offer a simple yet complete strategy. People can choose amongst the most conservative approaches to the most aggressive.

THE GOAL OF THIS PORTFOLIO:

The Sailboat models use a tactical portfolio management process we call Focused Tactical Allocation (FTA). This means that our FTA models are positioned to take advantage of the factors/facts present in the market.

OVERALL STRATEGY:

Rather than recycling the Modern Portfolio Theory, the Sailboat portfolios are built on an innovative mathematical blend of technical and fundamental facts and are constantly monitored. Our process relies on the rigorous and continuous measurement of the global markets.

THE GOAL OF THIS PORTFOLIO:

Provide an attractive yield through investment-grade opportunities and a reasonable total risk-adjusted return opportunity versus the benchmark.

OVERALL STRATEGY:

This strategy identifies alpha opportunities from a universe of global bonds. It’s built on economic analysis, general trends in fixed income markets, yield curve analysis, credit analysis, spread analysis, risk-adjusted returns, quality analysis, sector analysis, and total return projections.

Satellite Portfolios

The following portfolios seek to provide lower correlation and expanded investment opportunities compared to our core strategies.

Focused Real Estate

SEEKS BETA AND ALPHA:
The beta allocation of the portfolio is implemented with ETFs. The alpha allocation is implemented with individual equities and seeks to invest in companies that possess attractive valuations, strong relative strength, and momentum in the fundamentals.
Beta strategies seek returns inline with an index while alpha strategies seek to outperform an index. Using this approach, the investor works with an advisor to determine willingness and ability toward risk while constructing a portfolio that meets individual objectives.

THE GOAL OF THIS PORTFOLIO:

Provide investors with an adaptive real-estate portfolio constructed for all market conditions, resulting in reasonable risk-adjusted total returns compared to the general U.S. real estate market.

OVERALL STRATEGY:

Rebalancing quarterly, this portfolio is a blend of active and passive management. 60% of the portfolio seeks exposure to the general U.S. real estate market (beta) based on the MSCI US Investable Market Real Estate 25/50 Index.

Alternative Real Estate

BEST FOR THIS TYPE OF INVESTOR:

Accredited investors who seek investment in a wide variety of real estate assets.

We are experienced with incorporating Delaware Statutory Trusts, private REIT’s, publicly-traded REIT’s, opportunity zones, direct ownership assets, and/or self-directed IRA real estate assets into portfolios.

Focused Metals Portfolio

THE GOAL OF THIS PORTFOLIO:

Provide investors with an adaptive portfolio constructed for inflationary and or turbulent economic conditions. When combined with core equity and/or bond strategies, the portfolio may act as a hedge and blend active and passive management.

Structured Notes

A structured note is a custom bond created in alliance with the highest-rated financial institutions. Its return is based on equity indexes, a basket of equities, interest rates, commodities, foreign currencies, or any portfolio design that our team deems appropriate under current market conditions. The performance of a structured note is then linked to the return on the portfolio, index, or asset class we build. Structured notes provide contingent downside protection when held to maturity and limit loss to acceptable and predictable levels.
  • A structured note is a bond that can replicate the risk-adjusted return profile of each investor's risk tolerance.
  • The flexibility of structured notes allows them to offer a wide variety of potential payoffs that are difficult to find elsewhere.
  • Structured notes are subject to the same market forces as other investments, such as market risk, low liquidity, and default risk.
