At Origin, we strive to provide investment options that are efficient, cost-effective, and tailored to meet diverse investment goals and risk tolerances. Here’s a brief overview of our portfolio creation methodology:
-
Extensive Research: We begin with broad research to encompass as many viable investment options as possible. This ensures that we consider a wide array of assets while keeping the total number manageable to avoid excessive trading and hidden costs such as bid/ask spreads and cash drag.
-
Asset Selection: We divide the U.S. stock market into three capitalization-based segments: large-cap (VOO), mid-cap (IJH), and small-cap (IJR). For international stocks, we've chosen IEFA for developed markets and IEMG for emerging markets. Our fixed income choices include AGG for U.S. bonds and BNDX for international bonds, with JNK for high-yield bond exposure. For portfolios with a need for liquidity or lower risk, we include SHV for short-term fixed income.
-
Diversification and Allocation: Our portfolios are designed to offer global exposure and diversification. Each portfolio is constructed based on the investor's specific risk profile and investment goals, which are determined through a comprehensive risk assessment process.
-
Automated and Personalized: Depending on your unique financial goals and risk tolerance, the exact composition of your portfolio may vary. However, the core philosophy of using low-cost index funds and maintaining diversified allocations remains consistent across all portfolios.
Our approach minimizes costs and aligns with our commitment to providing you with a straightforward, effective way to grow your wealth. By focusing on index funds and strategic asset allocation, we ensure that all our members have access to investment strategies that are time-tested and widely respected for their efficacy and simplicity.
