The AssetLock Advantage

AssetLock monitors the investor's household portfolio value and AssetLock Value and communicates key changes to both the investor and financial advisor. This approach helps the investor capture portfolio gains and reduce the potential for losses by keeping the portfolio strategy and investor's risk tolerance aligned.

How AssetLock Works

The hypothetical example below demonstrates using AssetLock on an initial portfolio valued at $100,000. The investor's household Value at Risk (VaR) Analysis and portfolio allocation determined a 10% AssetLock Threshold desired in the portfolio making the starting AssetLock Value $90,000. If the portfolio experiences growth to a High-Water Value of $146,793, the AssetLock Value would then increase to $132,114. If the portfolio then experiences a 10% loss, breaching the AssetLock Value of $132,114, the financial advisor and investor will be notified to discuss the possibility of portfolio allocation adjustments.

AssetLock® is tracking software used to monitor the performance of a client's household portfolio and predetermine the amount of downside the client is willing to tolerate. The AssetLock Threshold is the maximum percentage of the downside the investor is willing to accept inside the portfolio as determined by Simplicity's proprietary risk scoring algorithm, which is based on a Risk Tolerance Questionnaire and Value at Risk (VaR) Analysis of the household and model portfolio(s). It is NOT an actual stop order and will NOT automatically sell the individual securities in the household portfolio. The information provided here is not investment, tax or financial advice.
