Your wealth is of great importance in all respects. Would you like your portfolio to be conservatively managed? Our managed account service might be the right solution. Laaken offers discretionary wealth management based on a model or customised portfolio for mandates from €1,000,000. Your portfolio is managed in your name at a custody bank of your choice. Transactions are carried out by Laaken in your own account.
Core to the philosophy of Laaken is setting up risk and cost efficient investment portfolios. We invest directly in a selection of individual shares and bonds with a long-term horizon. Laaken has a profound understanding and a good reason to invest in each of the constituents in your portfolio.
Before we set up your portfolio, we establish a personal investor profile with your investment goals, level of knowledge and desired risk and return. Depending on this profile, your portfolio will follow one of our model portfolios: Defensive, Balanced or Offensive. If you have more specific investment requirements, we can fully customise your portfolio to better reflect your wishes and objectives.
The investment objective of the Laaken Balanced model portfolio is capital growth and income generation. We invest ~60% in equities and ~40% in fixed income. The model portfolio has achieved an average gross return of 7.5% per year versus the benchmark of 5.1%.
You will receive detailed monthly reporting on the performance of your portfolio and individual assets. If you wish, we may consolidate other externally managed assets such as securities deposits in our reporting, for a complete financial overview. In addition to the monthly reports, you have continuous access to your portfolio through your custody bank portal. If you would like to get in touch with your portfolio manager, we remain at your disposal to answer any of your questions. At all times, by phone, email or in person.
The fee structure of Laaken is simple and transparent with attractive graduated rates, based on your assets under management. Laaken never accepts any fees other than the management fee. In addition to the management fee, the custody bank charges service and transaction costs for holding, buying and selling securities. These costs are settled directly with your custodian. Laaken periodically evaluates these charges in order to ensure competitive rates for our clients. Please see the table for an overview of the total estimated annual costs for various account sizes.
