4 Investment
Concepts to Consider
Ineffective
Mutual funds that exhibit similar patterns of
performance may not provide sufficient
portfolio diversification.
All investing involves risk including the possible loss of
principal. There can be no assurance the any investment
will achieve its investment objectives. Diversification does
not guarantee profit or protect against loss in declining
markets.
Effective
Combining mutual funds with different patterns of
performance could lower the volatility of
the overall portfolio.
For illustrative purposes only.
Concept One:
Effective Beats Ineffective Diversification
All investing involves risk including the possible loss of principal. There can be no assurance the any investment will achieve its
investment objectives. Diversification does not guarantee profit or protect against loss in declining markets.
Concept Two:
Lower Volatility Can Result in Higher Value
Both portfolios have a
10% average annual rate
of return.
For illustrative purposes only. Not representative of any Loring Ward strategy.
Concept Three:
• Low Turnover
• Diversified
• Low Operating Expenses
• Designed to Track Dimensions of Return
Institutional Mutual Fund Characteristics We Look For
Use Balanced Asset Class Mutual Funds
All investing involves risk including the possible loss of principal. There can be no assurance the any investment will achieve its investment objectives. Diversification does not guarantee
profit or protect against loss in declining markets.
Concept Four:
The efficient frontier is a theoretical line
connecting all portfolios that provide the
investor with the highest expected return for
their chosen level of risk.
For illustrative purposes only. “Expected return” is a term of specialized use. It is generally understood to mean the statistically achievable return (based on historical data and
other assumptions) over a sufficiently long-time horizon. Expected returns are theoretical returns; they are not estimated returns. They are not intended to project future
performance. “Risk,” as used in the asset allocation program, is defined as standard deviation. It is a measure of volatility, a statistical calculation based on past performance. It
describes how far from the mean performance numbers have varied in the past.

the impact material economic and market factors might have had on Loring Ward’s decision making if
Loring Ward was actually managing clients’ money at that time. Assumes dividend and capital gain

Disclosures & Important Information
Past performance is not indicative of future performance. All investments involve risk, including loss of principal.
S&P 500 Index is the Standard & Poor's 500 Index. The S&P 500 Index measures the performance of large-capitalization U.S. stocks. The S&P 500 is an unmanaged market value-weighted index of
500 stocks that are traded on the NYSE, AMEX and NASDAQ. The weightings make each company’s influence on the index performance directly proportional to that company’s market value.
The MSCI EAFE Index (Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia and Far East Index) is comprised of more than 1,000 companies representing the stock markets of Europe, Australia,
New Zealand and the Far East, and is an unmanaged index. EAFE represents non-U.S. large stocks. Foreign securities involve additional risks, including foreign currency changes, political risks,
foreign taxes and different methods of accounting and financial reporting.
Treasury bills and government bonds are guaranteed as to repayment of principal and interest by the U.S. government. The indexes are unmanaged baskets of securities not available for direct
investment. Returns assume dividend and capital gain reinvestment. Smaller companies have additional risks, including greater volatility and less liquidity than stocks of larger companies. Value
companies have more risk than growth companies and may underperform when the market favors growth companies.

  • 16. Concept Four: The efficient frontier is a theoretical line connecting all portfolios that provide the investor with the highest expected return for their chosen level of risk. For illustrative purposes only. “Expected return” is a term of specialized use. It is generally understood to mean the statistically achievable return (based on historical data and other assumptions) over a sufficiently long-time horizon. Expected returns are theoretical returns; they are not estimated returns. They are not intended to project future performance. “Risk,” as used in the asset allocation program, is defined as standard deviation. It is a measure of volatility, a statistical calculation based on past performance. It describes how far from the mean performance numbers have varied in the past.
