Investors
Markets go up, markets go down, and markets even go sideways. The expression, “the only constant is change,” is likely as true today as the day it was first spoken. CLS understands the challenges of keeping pace with all the changes in the marketplace – as one of the largest independent 3rd party money managers in the United States, we keep pace every day. As a SEC Registered Investment Adviser, we utilize a proven investment methodology and deliver diverse investment strategies to more than 40,000 investors, though our methodology allows us to focus on the needs and preferences of individual investors. Our expert portfolio management is available to you, too.

CLS offers a unique, disciplined, active investment methodology called risk budgeting. Think of a risk budget as a thermostat. Everyone has a comfort zone – some may like the thermostat set at 68° while others may prefer 73°. No matter what the temperature is outside, the thermostat adjusts to keep the temperature inside at a preset level. Risk budgeting is essentially a thermostat for a investor’s portfolio. We work with each investor to determine his or her risk budget according to personal financial goals, capacity for risk, and overall time horizon.

The CLS Investment Committee provides daily management of all CLS portfolios. We will make adjustments to account holdings in response to market conditions that cause the risk associated with the holdings to change, If these adjustments cause an increase in the overall risk of an individual investor’s portfolio, CLS makes complementary adjustments to other holdings in the account to bring the portfolio back into alignment with the investor’s risk budget.
