The island edge Bermuda is widely regarded as one of the world s pre-eminent financial, investment and insurance service centres. The island is renowned as a principled international business centre and luxury tourist destination with a long history of political, economic and social stability. Some of the world s wealthiest people call Bermuda home. They appreciate the discretion that characterizes island life here. Bermuda s geographic setting is key to its prosperity. Conveniently located between the United States and Europe Bermuda affords strategic access to and from major cities on both sides of the Atlantic. In addition, Bermuda s mature legal and regulatory systems have earned it a reputation as a jurisdiction that operates with a high degree of transparency. The island also features one of the world s most tax neutral destinations, free from income, profit, corporate, capital gains and withholding taxes.

Personal service for individualized solutions We begin to craft your investment solution based on a full understanding of your unique circumstances and overall wealth objectives. Working closely with you, your personal investment manager will analyze and evaluate your current circumstances, time horizon, risk tolerance. Our understanding will be captured in your Investment Policy Statement (IPS), which clearly maps your individual path to success and guides every action we take on your behalf. The most significant is dynamic and strategic portfolio asset allocation, which pinpoints optimum solutions to maximize your return per unit of risk. Through a rigorous selection process, we identify the right fund manager to populate your specific allocation. We look for managers who provide access to highly reputable and top performing external funds. These experts are specifically mandated by Clarien based on track record and key qualitative attributes, including an understanding of our approach to client portfolio management.
