Investment Strategies To Grow, Protect & Transfer Wealth

We operate an institutional-grade investment management approach that we customize precisely to your situation. The result is portfolio recommendations based on strategic and tactical asset allocation and prudent diversification. When evaluating current and recommended holdings—stocks, bonds, cash, real estate, alternatives and other investment vehicles—asset allocation is the most important part of the investment decision.

We advise on investments to provide a high level of diversification, but whatever we consider, we are always guided by this maxim—“Know what you’re paying for; never invest in something you don’t understand or is difficult to value.”

We build customized multi-asset class portfolios to maximize post-tax, and post-fee returns and support your short- and long-term goals.

Our advisor team helps you preserve your wealth and achieve your financial goals. Instead of offering you a predictable portfolio allocation, we first create a financial plan to provide context that informs the appropriate investments, allocations, and customized strategies for your unique situation. We carefully consider your financial goals; look at your risk profile, liquidity, and timeline; and factor in charitable, legal, and tax considerations to determine an asset allocation for you.

Our investment approach differs from traditional investment management firms; we employ a hybrid approach.

In many cases, we invest across various traditional and alternative investment classes, letting opportunity guide us. We look across the full spectrum of investments, including private equity, real estate, specialty niche opportunities, and hedging strategies that offer access to new and unique options, gain independence from traditional markets and balance your risk. We believe our current alternative funds are well-positioned for potential volatility and inflation, delivering results with less stress during turbulent markets.

Other asset classes offer the opportunity for outperformance.

We analyze levels of competition, dispersion of returns, and other factors to identify opportunities for active management. Within these markets, we work exclusively with active managers which we believe have an edge over the competition, which allows them to take advantage of inefficiencies. Our managers must also continuously improve their process, which results in an enduring competitive edge as markets become more efficient over time.

Niche opportunities enhance the potential for stronger long-term portfolio performance.

Our size allows us to access investment opportunities that smaller firms do not have the capacity to diligence, and that larger firms cannot participate in due to fund capacity constraints.

Monitor, Review and Adjust

Each day that an investment professional chooses not to make a change, they are endorsing the status quo. We monitor the markets and test ourselves on a regular basis to ensure we have conviction and confidence in the portfolio that exists today. Bilyk Financial’s investment team meets weekly to ensure that portfolios don’t fall victim to a common problem in this industry – inertia. Our process is consistent and our focus on continuous improvement allows us to be nimble and make adjustments. Your Bilyk Financial team continuously monitors your portfolio, challenges assumptions, and seeks opportunities to increase return and mitigate risk.
