About CWS

Complement to any Broad-Based Index Fund — CWS’s strategy seeks to avoid the fundamentally weak companies that index-based funds generally hold and only invest in those perceived as “first in class” firms. Low Turnover — CWS’s strategy is focused on the long term. That’s why CWS aims for a buy-and-hold strategy, trading as infrequently as possible and holding for as long as it can. CWS believes that a disciplined buy-and-hold strategy is ideal for riding out market storms. Innovative Fulcrum Fee Structure — CWS’s Portfolio Strategist’s manager fee is directly tied to performance: outperformance is rewarded with a larger management fee; underperformance is penalized with a smaller management fee. Disciplined Alpha Seeking Strategy — CWS is focused on a core group of what we believe are outstanding firms, offering investors a simple way to get instant exposure to a concentrated equity portfolio of companies with proven competitive advantages.
