Milford’s Private Portfolio Advice Service
This is a fully discretionary advice service where Milford has authority to buy and sell portfolio investments on behalf of the investor and is then accountable for the performance of the portfolio. Each client has an Authorised Financial Adviser (AFA) acting as their portfolio manager. Each AFA is a member of the very experienced Milford Investment Committee which decides on overall investment strategies. Portfolios are designed to maximise investment returns for a given level of risk with a focus upon protecting an investor’s capital through active management.
The service does not include, however, providing a full financial plan.
