    Our Philosophy

    We believe investors should be compensated for the risks they take — in all market environments and any investment strategy.

    Overview

    Strategy With Yields Higher Than Money Market Instruments

      Diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against a loss in a declining market. It is a method used to help manage investment risk.

      All securities investing and trading activities risk the loss of capital. Each portfolio is subject to substantial risks including market risks, strategy risks, advisor risk, and risks with respect to its investment in other structures. There can be no assurance that any portfolio investment objectives will be achieved, or that any investment will achieve profits or avoid incurring substantial losses. No investment strategy or risk management technique can guarantee returns or eliminate risk in any market environment. Risk controls and models do not promise any level of performance or guarantee against loss of principal. Any discussion of risk management is intended to describe NTAM’s efforts to monitor and manage risk but does not simply lower risk. This information is general in nature and should not be construed as tax advice. Please consult a tax advisor or professional as to how this information may affect your particular circumstance.
