BB&T also uses technical analysis to review actual stock price movement and make sector evaluations. BB&T's fixed-income strategies focus on building a stable portfolio that produces steady, predictable returns. The firm offers both taxable and non-taxable fixed-income strategies. Both strategies include concentrated investments in bonds of high credit quality. Their taxable fixed-income strategy focuses on highly rated, intermediate-term bonds with an emphasis on US Government issues. BB&T's non-taxable fixed-income strategy focuses on investments in municipal bonds, with an emphasis on general obligation issues. The firm's Balanced Strategy offers the growth potential of stocks and the stability of bonds. Investments are selected through the use of a proprietary asset allocation method. The equity portion is diversified across all economic sectors. Fixed-income investments focus on intermediate-term fixed-income securities. Portfolio balance is achieved by blending multiple investment strategies and asset classes. This combination may include equity value, equity growth, fixed-income and international equity. The firm's International Equity Strategy provides foreign investment opportunities in established, growing companies in developed and emerging markets. Portfolios are diversified by company, industry and country to reduce portfolio risk.

The firm's Equity Income Strategy seeks above average income production through a portfolio of companies that offer stable, robust and growing dividends with the added benefit of long-term growth of principal. The portfolio focuses on companies with above average yield and historic growth in dividends. BB&T employs a diversification strategy that emphasizes income potential over growth. They use proprietary qualitative analysis to rank companies based on current yield, future yield adjusted for historical dividend growth and financial ability to increase dividends. The firm considers a company's historical operating cash flow after capital spending, forward-looking expense estimates and payment of preferred dividends. They also consider other criteria such as potential liabilities, management strength, business quality, anticipated competitive advantages and the potential to benefit from secular trends. | Gestionnaire de Portefeuille-Actions | 30/09/2010 |
de Garmo & Kelleher, Inc.
 de Garmo & Kelleher, Inc. Investment ManagersFinance DGK is a balanced portfolio manager. Their portfolios typically have some representation in common stocks, fixed-income obligations and short-term cash reserves. The specific allocation is determined and revised through ongoing review of a client's objectives and circumstances as well as the firm's assessment of the current investment climate. Their analysis and selection of fixed-income investments focus on investment grade, short- to intermediate-term government, municipal and corporate bonds depending on the after-tax yield for the specific client. They generally avoid long-term bonds because of their volatility and unsatisfactory returns when weighed against relative risk. For short-term cash reserves, DGK normally uses Treasury bills and money market funds, although they may also consider commercial paper or certificates of deposit if advantageously priced. The firm invests in domestic exchange-traded or over-the-counter stocks or warrants as well as in stocks of foreign issuers. Their universe of stocks ranges from large, recognized firms to many small- and medium-sized growth oriented companies. They primarily utilize individual securities, although from time to time DGK invests in mutual funds in order to obtain representation in particular areas of investment where they feel there are limitations posed by individual securities. | Analyst-Equity | 30/09/2010 |
