How We Invest
There is no way to predict the direction of the market. That's why Quartz Partners manages our investment strategies in real-time and dynamically adjusts portfolio allocations as market conditions inevitably change. When opportunities arise, we can seamlessly adjust client portfolios.
Research-Driven Portfolios
Our strategies are driven by Quartz Partners' PRICE Method, a proprietary process guided by the global economic and financial markets. Standing for Policy, Risk Incentives & Attitudes, Inflation & Interest Rates, Credit & Liquidity, and Earnings & Economy, the PRICE system is designed to provide strategy flexibility as market risks and opportunities change.
Managing Risk
All of our core strategies maintain a secondary capital preservation objective, seeking to avoid "permanent loss of capital." Protracted recessions and market downturns can threaten retirement goals, especially when they occur near or at the retirement (distribution) age. Through comprehensive research and portfolio evaluations, Quartz Partners seeks to protect investors from severe downturns.
Unbiased Investment Decisions
As a fully independent Investment Adviser, our investment selection process is guided solely by your best interests. We monitor the entire Exchange-Traded Funds universe to build portfolios based on characteristics including cost, tradeability and fit.
Portfolio Management.
