Cash Plus Portfolio

The Cash Plus Portfolio is a cash flow/liquidity orientated portfolio constructed with the aim of providing for capital or liquidity requirements between 3 and 12 months.

It uses a range of more defensively orientated, short-dated investments that aim to provide cash ‘plus’ or Term Deposit levels of income with minimal volatility.

The goals of the Cash Plus Portfolio are:

  • Return Target - RBA ‘special’ term deposit rate
  • Risk Target - Volatility of less than 0.5%
  • Income / Growth - The objective is to generate income only and no growth.
  • Timeframe - This portfolio should be held for a minimum of 3 months

USES 

Investors often want to hold cash aside as a buffer for emergencies or to cover expenses they know are coming up shortly. They may want a slightly higher return than leaving the money in the bank without the inconvenience of rolling over Term Deposits or opening online savings accounts.

How Dynamic Asset portfolios are used to manage client investments

Advisers typically use a mix of Dynamic Asset portfolios with the specific aim of matching portfolios to particular investment circumstances and investment goals of clients.

Dynamic Asset portfolios in use

Some of the significant benefits of this approach are that:

  • Client conversations are focused on their needs, their goals and the progress of their investments towards meeting those goals. It’s all about your client and what they want, which is why they came to you in the first place. It is client focused and valuable to them.

  • It underlines the value that you provide as an adviser in so far as you can clearly articulate why each portfolio meets their needs and that it is in their best interests.

  • The transparency, portfolio detail and research provided by Dynamic Asset provides ample opportunity to educate and inform your clients in a positive, efficient and engaging way.

  • Reporting is focused on the goals of their portfolio, not other arbitrary market benchmarks that have little or no relevance to their personal circumstances.

  • Clients that are clear on their goals, understand their investments and the progress being made are more confident. Confidence breeds trust and trust adds to satisfaction with the service your business provides. You can expect higher levels of client satisfaction, more referrals and higher levels of client retention.

  • The time invested in achieving this outcome is considerably less than when using the conventional asset allocation approach. This increases your client capacity, which increases your business revenue and profit results
