Leon Frazer & Associates' investment process starts with the development of their high-level economic view, which is based on both domestic and global conditions. From this, the firm focuses on long-term investment themes which they use to determine investment weightings in the key sectors of the economy. These views will also determine cash weightings. The Leon Frazer portfolio invests in companies that make up the “backbone” of the economy. Depending on economic conditions at least 40%-60% of the portfolio is generally invested in pipelines, utilities, telecoms, and financial services.
