Newsletter

December 2010

Archive

Our weekly newsletter provides information and ideas you can use to build the best portfolios for yourself or your client.

It's free, what's not to like?

MyPlanIQ provides unlimited, free access to those who are looking for strategic asset allocation strategies tailored to their plan and risk profile. It doesn't cost anything to register and MyPlanIQ will help you increase your risk adjusted returns in four key ways:

  • We will look through your list of funds for each asset class and pick the best funds. You may have several funds in each asset class and you may not know which is the best -- we will find it for you
  • We will perform styles rotation -- swapping in a better fund when performance changes
  • We will send you rebalancing emails to make sure that you keep the portfolio optimized
  • You have access to in depth analysis of your portfolio and other market metrics

Unlike other services (which aren't free) which give you a generic asset allocation portfolio, MyPlanIQ's superior fund selection adds an extra 1-2% annual returns, all for free!
