Haverford Trust’s active investment strategy is referred to as Haverford Quality Investing. This approach is designed to provide superior returns with less risk, primarily through investments in the securities of high-quality dividend-paying companies. The firm systematically allocates investments across a range of qualifying securities in a variety of growing industries. The turnover in their portfolios (sale and purchase of assets) at 15-25% is low by industry standards. Haverford Trust may sell an asset that has appreciated significantly in value in order to maintain diversification and keep your portfolio from being too heavily dependent on a stock or sector. They maintain that high quality, intermediate-term bonds provide the most attractive risk-adjusted returns.
