Behind our Philosophy at Highland Trust Partners

It has been our experience that investment success is usually determined through an unwavering commitment to a set of clearly defined investment principles.

These principles define our investment philosophy.

• Put all investment plans in writing.
• Market timing is not an investment strategy.
• Long-term investors should remain fully invested, unless it is clearly not prudent to do so.

Chasing “hot” performance inevitably leads to poor investment results.

• Use asset allocation and style diversification to help reduce risk and possibly increase returns.
• Never let emotional decisions replace rational judgment.
• Partner with an advisor who is not subject to conflicts of interest, and who takes the time to make sure that you understand the realities of the investment climate and your financial decisions.
