Over decades of managing money for our clients and helping them reach their goals, the RIS team has developed a custom, proprietary approach to understanding and trading the markets.

Multiple times throughout the year, we share our market perspectives with our clients and prospects. We provide a summary of the markets, a synthesis of the political and social landscape, an overview of the changes we’ve made to our portfolios, and commentary on the risks and opportunities we see in the short-term future.

We invite you to review our Market Commentary newsletters:
