Welcome to Stuart Chaussée & Associates
Stuart Chaussée & Associates is an independent, investment management firm located in Southern California. As independent advisors, we work on a fee-only basis. We offer clients unbiased, objective advice on portfolio management and investment planning. Stuart Chaussée has 25 years of experience as an investment advisor and portfolio manager.
In addition to managing money, Stuart Chaussée, is the author of three investment books. His most recent book, Advanced Portfolio Management: Strategies for the Affluent, was noted in a Barron's article titled "The Best Investment Books." Barron's staff said "Advanced Portfolio Management is aimed mainly at seasoned investors, though it describes complicated issues clearly and simply and gives advice that might be useful to both pros and amateurs."
Portfolio management services are typically available for accounts beginning at $1,000,000. (Exceptions will be made for special situations.) Portfolios of this size and above are generally comprised of individual securities (dividend-paying common stocks and corporate or municipal bonds). In addition, some portfolios will hold exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
Investment management fees are paid on a quarterly basis, at the end of each quarter. Fees are typically 1.1% annually, as a percentage of assets under management. (Fees range from .50% to 1.5%.) We do not receive commissions or have other conflicts of interest, and we offer objective, unbiased advice.
The primary financial objectives of our clients are generally Moderate Income, Moderate Growth & Income or Long-Term Growth & Income. See the section on "Model Portfolios" for more information on your profile.
