Our “client first” mentality ensures that our investors are kept informed and benefit from timely answers to any questions and concerns they may have. We go the extra mile by providing more than investment management services, we also offer advice and share our view on various matters of interest. In doing so, we aim to help our clients reach their unique objectives.
We spend the time getting to know a client’s distinct requirements, risk tolerance and metrics for success so we can respond to their specific objectives. Everyone on our team has the willingness to ask all the questions that help us understand your objectives. We listen, learn and act as your advocate in view of your best interests.
We show curiosity and imagination to better recognize suitable opportunities and work hard to build trust and understand long-term goals. We invest right alongside our clients. This ensures that our interests are always aligned with theirs, which is the true definition of relationship.
Investing involves more than just understanding all the details. It also requires that you uncover the insights about gold investing. At eFinance Group, we use these insights to identify clearly both gold’s return potential and its level of risk.
From the outset, we seek to fully understand a client’s risk tolerance, as it will help chart a course for security selection and portfolio construction. Risk controls are incorporated into each step of our investment process. Internal guidelines help to diversify portfolios and protect clients from undue risk.
At eFinance Group, risk management is used to identify threats and opportunities. We use risk models to assess inherent risks in portfolios and budget for them. We also rely on the experience of our investment managers to capture non-quantifiable risks. We promote a healthy risk culture that translates into all of our managers being open, transparent and ready to take action.
