Better Returns. Less Risk. Lower Taxes.


Better Returns. Less Risk. Lower Taxes.

As the saying goes, there's no such thing as a dumb question - and that is especially true when it comes to investing. The goal of every investor is to create a more efficient portfolio that maximizes returns while taking the least amount of risk possible. But many investors aren’t familiar with the details of what is going on in their portfolio; they wonder:

  • How much risk am I taking?
  • Are my returns acceptable given the amount of risk?
  • How much am I Paying in fees?
  • What could I be doing better?

The McKell Partners Portfolio Audit is designed to analyze your current portfolio and identify exactly what problems and potential opportunities exist. You may be paying higher fees than expected, taking more risk than you think, incurring abnormally high turnover, experiencing significant redundancies and overlap in stock and bond holdings and consequently getting lower performance than equivalent investments. This is where our public accounting auditing background shines! Want to pop the hood and find out what’s going on inside your portfolio?
