Investment Services Segregated Total Return Portfolio — Private Clients Total assets managed (April 2007): $60.0 million
Shaunessy Investment Counsel invests and manages portfolios on behalf of several distinct groups of clients. The most numerous group is private clients who have retained Shaunessy to invest assets globally. The investment mandate for these private clients is: (1) capital preservation (2) global diversity, and (3) stable net returns averaging 8-10% annually. Global Total Return portfolios are actively managed in terms of asset allocation (based on moderate forecasting and analysis and a 60/ 40 stocks/ bonds default model) to provide positive returns using a diverse portfolio of fixed income, equity, commodity and currency investments. These portfolios are not pooled. Each client has an individual segregated account held in trust, monitored and reported on by a custodian (TD Waterhouse Institutional Services). Shaunessy has trading authority (as defined and limited by an Investment Management Agreement) and clients have web-enabled 24/7 access to monitor the portfolio. Assets can be transferred in and out of the account by the client only. Fees charged by Shaunessy are based on assets under management (value of the portfolio) as outlined in our fee schedule.
