On the more conservative end of the spectrum is the Fixed Income Portfolio. A client can choose a taxable Fixed Income Portfolio, which seeks to provide returns from U.S. government agency securities, corporate debt and/or preferred stocks, or a non-taxable Portfolio, which seeks to provide returns from municipal bonds. Fixed income securities are selected using the same methodology as the fixed income segment in the Balanced Portfolio. The fixed income portfolio seeks to produce total returns over complete market cycles that exceed returns that may be expected from random trading and passive management strategies. At the discretion of the manager, the taxable and/or non-taxable fixed income portfolios may consist entirely of one type of security, such as, for example, government agency securities.
