We help you to create wealth through investment

Private Client Investing

Each private client is different. With an eye on your medium-to-long-term investment goals, we assess your strategy or develop a new strategy designed to deliver healthy returns within your risk parameters and time frames.

There are certain questions you may no longer know the answer to:

  • How tax-efficient are my investments?
  • Am I over-exposed to one market, industry or asset class?
  • Is my portfolio on track to meet my financial objectives?
  • Is my portfolio strong enough to resist economic shocks?
  • Could I be getting a better return somewhere else?
 

One of our experienced private wealth consultants will find the answers to those questions and help you feel confident about your portfolio. If you are looking to diversify, talk to us about bonds, property, private equity, infrastructure, commodities or ESG investing.

The All Weather Portfolio

The SYS All-weather Portfolio is unique in the marketplace – a bespoke investment portfolio curated in-house by the SYS Group and available exclusively to our clients.

It is a portfolio of top-performing funds using both active and passive investment strategies wrapped in a transparent, low-fee structure. It is a truly diversified portfolio, made up of real return, European inflation-linked bonds, global infrastructure, global real estate, fixed income, multi-asset funds and commodities.

The low-fee structure of the All-weather Portfolio means more of any potential growth goes into your pocket rather than the fund managers’. The value of your investment may go down as well as up.
