Why choose Kelly+Partners Direct Invest?

How have the portfolios been selected?
The Kelly+Partners Investment Committee has selected each portfolio to represent a specific strategy common across the Kelly+Partners client base. Our aim is to offer a range of carefully considered portfolios that are accessible to all investors regardless of how much they have to invest. Each investment has been thoroughly researched and selected based upon risk return profiles, track record, cost, liquidity and performance versus its peer group.
Who is making the investment decisions?
The Kelly+Partners Investment Committee meets once per quarter to discuss macro and micro economic trends, review asset allocations and oversee the investment model portfolios to ensure they are optimised for risk and returns. Any refinements to the model portfolio are agreed upon at the meetings and implemented thereafter. The committee consists of two highly experienced investment professionals, Anoop Kalra and Trent Doughty, who have vast knowledge and expertise.
How do I monitor my investments?
The online portal and mobile app gives you complete control of your portfolio 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You will also have access to a detailed breakdown of all the investments in your portfolio, how much they cost and what they're worth. Your Kelly+Partners Team will handle all administration, transactions, reporting, record keeping, and legal compliance on your behalf.
How will I stay up to date with changes in the market?
The Kelly+Partners Investment Committee conducts formal quarterly meetings. At these meetings, the committee will review all model portfolios, including each individual component, asset allocation and portfolio weightings. The committee will also consider micro and macro-economic trends and data, global investment markets and political and regulatory changes. You will receive weekly and quarterly investment reports that include our latest financial insights and updates on market trends and movements.
Do I need professional investment management?
People make better decisions when they have more information and more time to understand and react to that information. As an investor, you want to make the best possible decisions about what to do with your money. But this can take time, research and the capability to interpret data and monitor global trends that you might not have. An investment management team can use their expertise and resources to professionally research companies, share prices, economies, policies, and data from around the world. They can use their depth of information to make better investment decisions for your portfolio.
