How We Work
A Disciplined and Repeatable Advisory Process
At Hudson House Capital, we believe effective financial advice is grounded in structure, independence, and consistent application of sound principles. Our process is designed to be deliberate and repeatable, while remaining responsive to each client’s unique goals and circumstances.
This framework guides how we gather information, conduct research, develop recommendations, and manage portfolios on an ongoing discretionary basis.
Step 1: Understanding Your Circumstances
Each advisory relationship begins with a detailed discussion to understand the client’s financial position, priorities, and long-term objectives.
This includes:
Financial circumstances, assets, and liabilities
Income, cash flow, and planning considerations
Investment objectives, time horizons, and risk tolerance
Constraints, preferences, and relevant life factors
This information provides the foundation for all analysis and recommendations.
Step 2: Information Gathering and Analysis
We gather and review relevant financial and investment information to assess the client’s current position.
This may involve:
Reviewing existing accounts and holdings
Evaluating asset allocation and concentration risk
Assessing tax considerations and account structure
Identifying planning gaps or areas for further review
Clients are encouraged to provide complete and accurate information and to inform us of any material changes over time.
Step 3: Research and Due Diligence
Recommendations are supported by independent research and analysis.
Our research process considers:
Investment strategies and asset class characteristics
Risk, diversification, and cost considerations
Implementation methods and structure
Alignment with stated objectives and constraints
We do not rely on proprietary products or third-party compensation when conducting research.
Step 4: Strategy Design and Recommendations
Based on our analysis and research, we develop recommendations tailored to the client’s objectives and risk profile.
This may include:
Portfolio structure and asset allocation
Investment selection and implementation considerations
Planning recommendations within the agreed scope of services
Discussion of risks, assumptions, and limitations
Recommendations are presented clearly and discussed collaboratively.
Step 5: Implementation
For clients who engage Hudson House Capital for discretionary investment management, approved strategies are implemented on the client’s behalf.
Implementation may include:
Account establishment and funding
Transitioning existing investments
Executing trades in accordance with the agreed-upon strategy
Coordination with custodians and other professionals, as appropriate
Step 6: Ongoing Discretionary Portfolio Management
Once implemented, portfolios are managed on a discretionary basis in line with the agreed investment strategy.
Ongoing oversight includes:
Monitoring portfolio alignment
Rebalancing when appropriate
Evaluating changes in market conditions or client circumstances
Making adjustments consistent with long-term objectives
Investment outcomes cannot be guaranteed, and all investing involves risk.
Step 7: Review and Ongoing Communication
We believe ongoing communication is essential to an effective advisory relationship.
Clients can expect:
Periodic portfolio reviews
Regular reporting
Access for ongoing questions and discussions
Adjustments as objectives or circumstances change
The frequency and scope of communication are based on the nature of the engagement and client preferences.
A Long-Term Perspective
Our process is designed to support disciplined, long-term decision-making. While markets and personal circumstances evolve, our focus remains on maintaining alignment with each client’s goals and providing consistent, thoughtful oversight over time.
