Investment Management Technology

The Coral Gables Trust investment philosophy is derived from a Unified Managed Account (UMA). This approach allows the company to manage client portfolios containing multiple managers in a single account while eliminating the inefficiencies associated with separately managed accounts.

A unified investment approach allows our clients to benefit from several attributes that include:

  • Elimination of duplicate holdings
  • Tax efficiency
  • Reduced turnover
  • Statistically based rebalancing
  • Avoidance of manager minimums

 

With the firm’s award-winning investment management technology, the entire wealth cycle of our clients can be managed in a streamlined fashion. Important technological features include:
 

 

  • Proposal generation
  • Detailed performance reporting
  • Manager research and news bulletins
  • Customized model management
  • Cash/expense management
  • Industry leading portfolio rebalancing technology
 


Coral Gables Trust Company employs a combined strategy using both alpha generating active investments and index tracking investments to optimize risk, return and costs. The firm utilizes a unique combination of outside expertise and internal committees to fulfill the duties of investment manager research, investment manager selection, asset allocation, investment objectives and investment policy formation.

 

CGTC has aligned itself with a top tear and state-of-the-art strategic open-architecture partner to provide the firm with investment manager due diligence, research updates, award winning investment technology, proposal generation and performance reporting. Additional third-party sources such as Morningstar® and Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. are used to supplement the firm’s research function.

Through its open-architecture partnership, the firm has access to several hundred fully researched investment manager solutions that can be used within client portfolios. The approved managers are selected based on a thorough qualitative and quantitative research process that is designed to illustrate the long-term value creation of each manager within their respective mandate.
