We
are pleased that you are visiting the Easton Episcopal
Funds website.
Currently,
three Funds are available. An all equity Fund, an all
fixed income Fund, and a balanced Fund. If you want
to make your own asset allocation decision, you can
select the exposure to stocks or bonds that is most
appropriate for the purpose of the money being invested.
If you want the Board of Managers in consultation with
the adviser to make this choice the Easton Balanced
Fund will accomplish that objective.
Funds
are now valued daily, not that we expect anyone to become
day traders but because we realize that
once you make your decision as to how you want your
money managed, you would like to implement it as quickly
as possible.
Because
we value the Funds daily, you can see what is happening
to your investment any day you choose. Perhaps an important
meeting is coming up and you want to tell your audience
how your investments are doing, that information is
available at your fingertips. You will be able to calculate
returns from any starting date to any ending date, again
a feature that may be needed only occasionally, but
it will always be available. If you want to know what
was held in the fund a short time ago, that information
is there.
Our
adviser provides us with quarterly comments which will
be retained in our archives so you can go back and check
what was said whenever you are curious. Not only do
you get commentary but facts and characteristics of
the Funds are also available.
Whether
you are a current investor in the Easton Episcopal Funds,
or just curious, you should find a lot of useful information
here.
In
an ever more complex world it is becoming more difficult
to know exactly what is going on with your investments.
At the Easton Episcopal Funds we are making every effort
to provide you with all of the information concerning
your current or possible investment in these Funds.
We want to be completely transparent in every aspect
of operating these Funds on your behalf.
Investment
management has become increasingly sophisticated as
well as complex. By combining assets of Parishes and
entities throughout the Diocese of Easton greater scale
can achieved which allows us to engage the best possible
investment managers and other service providers.
If
you are already participating we thank you for your
confidence in the Funds. If you are contemplating using
the Easton Episcopal Funds we encourage you to give
them a try. We believe investment performance will be
competitive and appropriate for the risk tolerance of
most parts of the Diocese. We encourage you to let us
know what you think. Please dont hesitate to contact
us with any question or observation you have.
