According to that relation, a perfect investment strategy complying with the individual preferences of the client is offered to him or her.

At this stage we define the exact proportion of various tools included in the portfolio according to the strategy chosen by the client and the analysis of current situation in the market. The main criterion defining the contents of the portfolio is the fundamental analysis of the company’s activity that lets us forecast the future changes of financial indices, comparative analysis of the issuer’s price and solvency in relation to other companies operating in Russian and other developing value stock investing markets. In order to ensure the establishment of a really full image, we resort to the help of various methods of collecting info about the issuers: along with searching for it in mass media sources and analyzing the researches carried out by major investment banks we visit the companies and meet the representatives of companies’ management in person, etc.
