Entrust has a structured approach to developing tailored investment portfolios.
We have a centralised Investment Committee whose role is to review and specify long term and medium term asset allocation strategy, monitor portfolio’s for composition and performance and consider investment managers and investments that are available to our clients.
The process is based on the belief that the primary method to achieve client investment objectives over the long term is by the diversification of the investment portfolio into suitable asset classes.
The Committee is chaired by Mr Phil Rees and is open to all Advisers
