HOW RAMSEYINVESTING.COM WAS BORN

A successful independent advisor for many years, Karen Ramsey found that she needed to raise her minimum investment requirements as her firm grew. But her heart was hurting as she realized she was now excluding people like her parents and family friends. "The ultra rich have teams of experts working on their behalf to manage their finances, but the majority of people don't have any help to ensure they're invested properly. I felt like I was leaving a large population of people behind that deserve good investment management services," stated Karen Ramsey. "So, I decided to do something about it and found a delivery method that elegantly and efficiently services clients that don't meet most financial planners minimums."

RamseyInvesting.com is an internet-based platform that services clients with accounts as low as $50,000 for an annual fee of 1% or $1,000, whichever is greater. The biggest advantage is that clients aren't left to figure out the best allocations for their investments. A team of professionals calls every client as they sign up, to walk through the portfolio options and to discuss their goals. In addition, clients have the option to receive annual reviews of their investments, over the phone, with a RamseyInvesting.com professional, free of charge.

RamseyInvesting.com's investment philosophy is the same as the Ramsey's wealth management side of the business (the firm that serves those with higher account sizes). Karen Ramsey and her team believe in diversified portfolios, invested for the long run, that do not try to "time the market." All investments are in no-load (lower-cost, commission-free) mutual funds. Proprietary mutual funds are not utilized. The mutual funds are best in class, with a better-than-average chance to beat the indexes. Clients have the choice of actively managed, passively managed or socially responsible portfolios.
