Absolute Returns in an Uncommon Market

Without a doubt, market conditions of the last few years are nothing like what we've seen before. The day to day market volatility makes it difficult for anyone to achieve consistent returns in their investment portfolio. Therefore, due to the unpredictable market conditions, it will regrettably leave many investors shy of meeting their financial goals. Thus, the question being asked by many of our investors: "What can we do to achieve consistent returns in these uncommon markets"? Our reply: “Alternative Investments”.

With that said, please join us for a timely presentation on managed futures, hosted by FCI, on achieving “Absolute Returns in an Uncommon Market”. Financial Commodity Investments, Inc. (FCI) has achieved national rankings for their steady and commendable returns in the OSS and CPP managed futures programs, respectively earning annualized returns of 21.74% and 27.09% for the past five and three "uncommon" years. -- Past performance is not indicative of future results.

Managed Futures - A Unique investment opportunity

Learn why institutions have been steadily shifting considerable amounts of assets into managed futures causing investments to more than double from $65 billion to $132 billion during the last two years. The recent investments into managed futures total more than the entire amount invested into these markets over the past 22 years!

Managed Futures describe an industry made up of professional money managers known as commodity trading advisors (CTAs). These commodity-trading advisors manage client assets on a discretionary basis using global futures markets as an investment medium. CTA's take positions based on expected profit potential.

Investment management professionals have been using managed futures for more than 20 years. More recently, institutional investors such as corporate and public pension funds, endowments and trusts, and banks have made managed futures part of a well-diversified portfolio. The growing use of managed futures by these investors can be attributed to the increased institutional use of the futures markets for risk-management programs. Additionally, investors want greater diversity in their portfolios.

Who Should Attend

Private investors and experienced professionals alike that want a viable alternative investment vehicle to diversify their portfolios and thus spread their risk.
Private investors and experienced professionals alike looking to optimize their current investment allocation.

Leaders Portfolio Radio Interview

Craig Kendall, CEO of Financial Investments, Inc. (FII), discusses his leadership philosophy on the “Leaders Portfolio” radio show in Washington, D.C.

————————————————

Washington, D.C. /Finding uncommon business success during an uncommon recession has given Craig Kendall a stage to share his insights into leadership with a Washington, D.C. business radio show. Kendall has seen his Virginia investment management firm grow more than 50% per year for the last five years.

As the president and CEO of Financial Investments, Inc. (FII) and its related entity Financial Commodity Investments (FCI), Kendall was acknowledged for his leadership skills during an in-depth interview featured on “Leaders Portfolio,” www.leadersportfolio.com a leadership interview show broadcasting in the Washington, D.C. area. The show focuses on CEOs who have demonstrated success in their field, and has featured guests like AOL Vice Chairman Emeritus Ted Leonsis, and MyBizHomepage.com President and CEO Peter Justen.

“The list of leaders and visionaries who have been on this show before me is truly humbling,” says Kendall. “But our leadership goes beyond the boardroom. I take pride in the fact we all share a common drive to build our businesses and give back to our metro area communities at the same time.”

The interview aired on WWRC 1260AM www.money1260.com on Wednesday, February 10th at 11am, and discussed the leadership styles, thoughts, and ideas that have helped Kendall build his financial consulting company into a two-time Inc. magazine honoree as one of the fastest-growing privately held companies in the country.

One example of that remarkable growth is in the investment management company’s wide client base. FII features more than 300 institutional and individual clients located in 42 states and 26 countries, which demonstrates FII’s success as both a domestic financial consulting company and a trusted foreign investment firm.

“This is the kind of recognition that may focus on one person specifically, but it’s really the result of the hard work of all of our employees,” says Kendall. “We’re obviously doing something right at FII to receive the accolades we have. I think I can speak for the entire company when I say we’re just excited to carry the momentum of 2009 into an even stronger 2010.
