Core Advisory Portfolios

Managed EXCLUSIVELY For ZEN ADVISORY PROGRAM CLIENTS

Core Advisory Portfolios are self-managed by our firm and form the foundation of most client portfolios. They are built using a consistent framework and adjusted based on allocation decisions—not product sales. These portfolios are implemented and managed within a broader planning context, aligned with each client's goals, risk tolerance, and financial circumstances.


Portfolio Series

Core Advisory Portfolios are organized into two series based on account type:


Retirement Series – Used primarily in tax-deferred and tax-advantaged accounts, such as IRAs and Roth IRAs. Designed for long-term retirement accumulation and income planning.


Freedom Series – Used primarily in taxable brokerage accounts. Designed to support flexibility, liquidity, and long-term goals beyond retirement.


Allocation Ranges

Portfolios are offered across a range of equity and fixed income allocations:

  • 60% equity / 40% fixed income
  • 70% / 30%
  • 80% / 20%
  • 90% / 10%
  • 100% equity

Allocation decisions are intentional and revisited over time as client circumstances evolve. A 100% equity allocation is available where appropriate.


Investment Approach

Core Advisory Portfolios follow a size and style framework, with diversification across large-cap, mid-cap, and small-cap equities, growth and value styles, international exposure, and multiple fixed income durations. This approach creates balance and supports rebalancing opportunities over time.


Model Detail Pages

Each model has a dedicated detail page showing current holdings, tickers, and weightings as of a stated date. Holdings may include ETFs from multiple providers, and portfolio composition may change over time. Tickers may link to third-party fund providers for informational purposes and do not imply endorsement.


Ongoing Management

We monitor portfolios on an ongoing basis, rebalance when appropriate, and adjust allocations as client circumstances evolve. Portfolio decisions are integrated with broader planning considerations, including tax strategy, cash flow needs, and long-term goals.

We offer complementary initial consultations
