Help to diversify and 
Reduce volatility

Our Specialty Asset Management team at U.S. Trust has deep experience managing real assets like timberland, farm and ranch land, oil and gas, and real estate. Because these assets don’t follow the financial market they can help to diversify and reduce a portfolio’s overall volatility.

Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal.

Diversification does not ensure a profit or protect against loss in declining markets.

There are special risks associated with an investment in commodities, real estate or certain industry sectors, including market price fluctuations, regulatory changes, interest rate changes, credit risk, economic changes, climate change, the impact of adverse political or financial factors or lack of diversification.

Nonfinancial assets, such as closely-held businesses, real estate, oil, gas and mineral properties, and timber, farm and ranch land, are complex in nature and involve risks including total loss of value. Special risk considerations include natural events (for example, earthquakes or fires), complex tax considerations, and lack of liquidity. Nonfinancial assets are not suitable for all investors. Always consult with your independent attorney, tax advisor, investment manager, and insurance agent for final recommendations and before changing or implementing any financial, tax, or estate planning strategy.
