We help you determine an appropriate Asset Allocation for your portfolio(s).
Sanco Services specializes in Market Cycle Investment Management and Asset Allocation. We design diversified investment portfolios, limiting security exposure to under 5%. We trade Investment Grade Value Stocks for reasonable and frequently attainable profits.
Positions are established in well established, profitable companies, held by institutional investors. All portfolios will have some level of income investment securities to assure a reasonable cash flow--- all of the time. We focus on income securities that can be added to when prices move lower and sold for profit when they move higher.
Personal asset allocation formulae are strictly controlled using our unique, cost-based, Working Capital Model. We do not look beyond the New York Stock Market for stocks that meet our stringent quality requirements for equity investments.
Sanco Services is a private company, able to conduct business anywhere. We prefer to use just one full service brokerage firm to assure that our clients receive the level of service, reporting, and attention that only a large relationship can demand. But full service does not have to mean excessive transaction charges.
We are not interested in becoming too large to trade consistently and effectively, AND we do not include any of the popular Wall Street investment products or derivatives in client portfolios. Investment manager Steve Selengut sells no investment products, receives no commissions on securities purchases or sales, and absolutely never invests clients' assets in open-end (standard) Mutual Funds or insurance/annuity products.
At Sanco Services, every client account is different from every other account, and Investment Management Fees vary with the size of the total client relationship. Every client, large and small, has direct and personal contact with their investment manager, by telephone and e-mail, whenever.
We try to minimize your risk level by:
- Buying only Investment Grade Value Stocks
- Diversifying conservatively within two asset allocation buckets
- Insisting on income from all securities purchased
- Never using margin debt as a strategy
Every investment manager recognizes the importance of some research. We rely upon the leader in the field (Standard & Poor's Corporation) to provide us with the fundamental and qualitative inputs we need on a day to day basis. As prudent investors of O. P. M. (Other People's Money), we attempt to minimize portfolio risk by investing only in proven companies.
We focus on things like corporate profits and dividend payment history. We have no tolerance for the "hype" of price predictions and media reports concerning management expectations. We attempt to eliminate both "greed" and "fear" from the investment equation.
We estimate that our average investment management relationship exceeds $350,000 but we enthusiastically welcome portfolios of less than $100,000. We have many relationships in excess of One Million Dollars, and currently (06/10) manage nearly seventy million dollars of Working Capital for approximately 125 clients.
We try to provide a safe investment environment for "Start-Up" portfolios under $40,000 where there is evidence of the discipline needed to add to portfolios regularly. Very small portfolios are handled individually, but are generally invested in CEFs.
(Please note that "we" always means "I". There are no committees and only one Investment Manager.)
We manage your Asset Allocation using the Working Capital Model.
