Our Investment Philosophy

Attivo Investments was created to manage your money in a way that fits your life and goals. We partner with SEI, a trusted global leader in investments, to bring you expert solutions that work seamlessly with the plans you’ve made alongside your Financial Planner.

Goal Based Investing

We believe investments should focus on helping you achieve your financial goals, not just chasing returns. Whether you’re growing your savings, protecting your wealth, or creating an income, our strategies are designed to keep you on track throughout the market cycles you are invested in.

Global Expertise
By partnering with SEI, designing and building the models together, we give you access to a team of global experts managing over $400 billion. This allows us to offer high-quality investment strategies at competitive costs, ensuring your money is managed efficiently and with innovation.

Goal based Investing is for Today’s Challenges
The world is constantly changing, with challenges like inflation, rising interest rates, and global shifts. Our approach adapts to these changes, ensuring your investments remain resilient and focused on what matters most: your financial goals.

A Smarter Way to Manage Money
Traditional investing often focuses on maximising returns without considering personal goals. Our goal-based approach tailors your investments to meet your specific needs, like saving for retirement, preserving your wealth, or generating income. This personalised approach helps you feel confident and supported every step of the way.

Why Attivo Investments Stands Out
We offer a modern way to invest, giving you access to strategies usually reserved for large institutions. Our model portfolios are designed to help protect your money during market dips while offering opportunities for growth. This ensures your investments align with your goals and adapt as your life changes.

How We Build Your Portfolio
We carefully select top investment managers who have a proven track record of success. Our team continuously monitors the model portfolio to ensure it stays aligned with the goals  it was designed for and performs as expected.

Preservation

If your goal is to protect the wealth you’ve built, our preservation models focus on steady, secure growth. These are ideal for goals like retirement income, leaving an inheritance, or maintaining your financial stability during uncertain markets.

 

Accumulation

If you’re focused on growing your wealth over time, our accumulation models are built for long-term planning. Whether you’re saving for retirement, a big life milestone, or future security, these portfolios are designed to grow your investments steadily and confidently.

 

Withdrawal

For those needing regular income, our withdrawal models are designed to provide a reliable quarterly payment. This ensures you can access your money when you need it, without taking unnecessary risks.

Investment Strategies

This approach is designed to keep fees low while focusing on long-term growth. These portfolios use simple, cost-effective investment options to match market performance and help you achieve your goals.
