Spectrum Financial, Inc. was founded in 1986 to provide investors with flexible and opportunistic investment approaches designed to avoid the all too often severe losses of a bear market. When investors are able to minimize losses when the market turns down, their opportunity to build value increases dramatically. The more money you have available to invest when an asset class begins a bull market run, the greater your opportunity for profit.

Spectrum's nearly 20 years of experience demonstrates that this approach to investing offers the opportunity for attractive long term returns while avoiding much of the bear market risk associated with investing in the securities markets.

The three concepts developed by Ralph Doudera, founder, CEO and investment strategist for Spectrum Financial, guide Spectrum's investment approaches:

1. Trade funds that offer diversification, management and minimal charges to exchange quickly into the safety of a cash position.
2. Take advantage of compound interest, a great wealth builder.
3. Preserve principal and limit losses.

The best way to avoid the all too often severe losses of a bear market is to be active in one's approach to investing. This requires that a portfolio be heavily invested when the prospects for profit and the trends of the market favor being profitable. Likewise, it requires that a portfolio move to the safety of a money market fund when the prospects for profit and market trends are poor.

While there can never be any guarantee that an investment strategy will be successful, and every strategy has periods of underperformance, active management provides investors with the flexibility to take advantage of changing trends in the market and should outperform over a full market cycle.

Investment Approach

Spectrum creates portfolios comprised of multiple, actively managed, investment strategies designed to take advantage of different market opportunities. Each strategy has the flexibility to move to the safety of money market funds when market conditions warrant. By using mutual funds, variable annuity contracts and variable life contracts, the strategies benefit from the added diversification provided by the securities held within each vehicle.
