The East Sac Local - FEBRUARY 2025
We’re past the hustle and bustle of the holidays, but many of us may still be recovering from a hectic (and joyful!) time of year.
Holiday season preparations are an annual stressor between the convenient and the customized. Nowadays, there is a pre-made, mass-produced version for any holiday need. You name it, and it’s ready to go, shipped, and done. Modern society is a metaphor for rampant scale as the information age is allowing everyone to become an expert on everything, immediately.
So it is with finance as well. Today, capital allocation and investment selection is a festival of ETFs, index funds, bitcoin, private credit, global real estate, and annuities. And how well do these one-size-fits-all products work? One need look no further than some retirement funds.
While capturing competitive investment returns remains elusive, some believe putting money to work has never been easier due to technology and ready-for-use (just add water, i.e. your money!) investment products. But these convenient investment products should not be confused with professionally managed portfolios of stocks of America’s most successful companies. At DeCamilla Capital, our philosophy is that ‘from scratch’ is worth the time and effort.
A private independent money management firm established in 1998, DeCamilla Capital customizes and manages enterprise-driven investment portfolios. We operate as investment fiduciaries on behalf of our customers—sharing our knowledge, building trust and confidence, and serving in a dutiful manner—in managing the assets of our clients for their exclusive benefit.
We do this work because we believe investment advisers should not be salespeople but should provide ethical investment guidance and expertise. Our lean yet robust nature enables us to put more focus on individual customers and their investment needs and goals using our 30 plus years of investment experience.
