Siegel’s Paradox states that equivalent magnitudes of negative and positive returns are actually not equivalent.  Simply stated, a gain of 20% does not offset a loss of 20%.  In order to get even, the portfolio needs
to gain 25%.

The CommonWealth Group’s primary goal for our clients is capital protection followed by capital growth.  We perform strict due diligence on potential managers to ensure they share our aversion to risk and can perform during adverse conditions. 

We recommend only “best in class” managers and other wealth advisors, choosing firms based on downside capture ratio, downside performance, upside capture ratio, discipline, skill of managers & experience.  Our method for selecting and monitoring managers has proven to be the winning formula resulting in superlative outcomes for CommonWealth Group clients
