I take a core and satellite investing strategy for my personal investing. For my core I use traditional index tracking ETFs.

With my satellite investing I use some select actively managed funds where I believe the manager can add value. Specifically, I have my Australian active satellite exposure is in Australian small caps. It’s important for me to know that part of my capital is going to the companies that are growing and becoming tomorrows future leaders.

When it comes to investing, I don’t trade in and out and am slow to deploy capital. I thoroughly believe in time in the market.

I also invest for my son via Rask Invest Luna, a portfolio I designed for him and the children of the Rask community.

What I try to impress on those in the Rask community is that investing doesn’t have to be complicated. Instead of getting analysis paralysis and getting yourself twisted in knots evaluating the tiniest differences in ETFs that track the same index, focus on your behaviour. Good investing is boring, repetitive and done over decades.
