PortfolioConstruction launches Internet TV
Graham Rich
Publishing house, brillient!, the company that produces the PortfolioConstruction Journal and annual conference, has made its debut on Internet TV delivering investment research.
PortfolioConstruction PortfolioPicks presents the financial planning industry with selected products that have earned the highest recommendations from respected research houses.
Each PortfolioPick provides a comprehensive introduction to a contemporary or emerging investment product via a 45-minute filmed program hosted by the company’s publisher Graham Rich.
The package includes a presentation by the product provider’s key investment professionals, their company’s profile, product research and qualifies for the Financial Planning Association’s continued professional development accreditation.
The first PortfolioPick introduces the T.Rowe Price Global Equity Fund and features research by van Eyk, which gave the fund an AA rating and included it in its Blueprint series.
The next instalment of what is to be a regular series of programs will be released on the Internet in February, 2007.
Rich said the aim was to assist dealer group principals and researchers, analytical investment advisers and super fund trustees and executives with their investment product due diligence.
“The research houses have a key role in particular product selection, which is obviously a key part of constructing portfolios — so we collaborate with the research houses and other industry participants we respect and actively include them in what we do,” he said.
“As with all our tools, PortfolioPicks is about the practice of constructing portfolios.”
