A separately managed account is a professionally managed portfolio of
securities owned directly by you with a single,
all-inclusive fee based on the amount of assets.
Although separate accounts are not appropriate for every investor,
they feature a number of benefits, for high-net-worth investors:
- Customization. Your portfolio can be tailored to fit
your investing preferences (for example you can restrict the
portfolio from owning tobacco or gambling securities.)
- Active portfolio management. Your portfolio is
constantly monitored and securities are traded in a manner that
seeks to take
advantage of developing opportunities and avoid undue risk.
- Style consistency. You can be certain that your assets
will be managed in strict accordance with the portfolio's stated
strategy, without the risk
that comes from "style drift."
- Direct ownership. Unlike a mutual fund, you own the
securities in your account--your money is not commingled with
other investors' assets.
- Tax sensitivity. Because you own the securities in your
account, trades can be executed, in the most tax efficient manner
possible.
