Bradley Reifler’s Forefront Advisory joins alpha-generators with traditional institutional investors into an established platform that pools together capital, industrial resources, and agenda in the generation of optimal returns at minimum risk. His Forefront co-principals Daniel Faucetta and Dan Weiskopf, pioneers of global exchange traded fund strategies (GES), have developed an exclusive exchange traded fund (ETF) database that employs tactical asset allocation to minimize volatility, dominate specific niches, and tap market fluctuations resulting from global trends to make structural modifications to investors’ global ETF portfolios.

After March 11’s devastating trilogy of destruction involving an earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear crisis had caused the Tokyo stock market to tumble, Bradley Reifler, Dan Wieskopf, and Daniel Faucetta join analysts and traders in amazement as record inflows amounting to as much as $1 billion avalanched into US-based mutual funds and ETFs that invest in Japanese stocks by market closure at Thursday, March 17, with the iShares MSCI Japan Index Fund, the largest Japan-related ETF in all of US and UK, receiving the lion’s share of the cash at a whopping $861 million.

“ETFs provide liquidity and they are readily available to traders of all sizes. This recent trade probably included everyone from hedge funds to individual investors who thought they would play the role of contrarian for a day,” says Jeff Tjornehoj, research head for Lipper Americas at Thomson Reuters.

Citi’s Robert Buckland, on the other hand, finds “a large difference in ETFs and non-ETF fund flows.” The analyst cites the net redemptions for mutual funds and the Bank of Japan’s $370 million in ETF purchases over the past week, events which may go a long way to explain the oversized levels of inflow experienced by Japan-focused ETFs last week.

Brad Reifler and his partners initiated the herding of the best individual investors at the height of the recession. Their collective efforts gave rise to Forefront Advisory, an institutional platform that renders independent investors the channel to conduct their businesses.

From Bradley Reifler

At present, given the turbulent times that the global investment community has faced, there is a clamor for a sophisticated institution to facilitate the trading of capital among singular forward-thinking entrepreneurs. To present trading not only as a money-making machine but an intellectual factory for talented traders—in-class asset managers, sophisticated traders, and high net-worth investors—Forefront responds to the clarion call for a results-driven financial recourse in two ways:

• Brad Reifler has seen this unique platform’s potential to provide “home” to the underserved market of $10 million and up capital-owners; and

• To attract the top players in this market to participate in investment trading and information stockpiling—exchange of expert concepts, ideas, and vision among themselves—within an organization, which will be more beneficial to more than just some people

From Bradley Reifler

Combined with cutting-edge technology, individual trading can stand rock-steady amidst the fluctuations in the economy. And Forefront Advisory, with its unique combination of technical, technological, and intellectual assets, is indeed at the forefront of this booming industry.

Recession hit hard, the financial market first-handedly knew that, but with insight Bradley Reifler presented trading as a means not only for making money but for exchanging ideas, information, and vision among traders to optimize investment performance.

At the height of the recession arose the need for an institutional platform that can address the concerns of independent investors. Mr. Reifler sought to rewrite the traditional investment model into a more relevant platform. In 2009, he and Luis Mariano co-founded Forefront Advisory, gathering the best and the brightest in-class asset managers, sophisticated investors, and high net worth individuals into one global investment and asset management community. The partners sought to place leverage on the combined strength of members.

From Bradley Reifler

Bradley Reifler, then, initiated the rise of the Instividuals. Instividuals are individual investors who passed the thorough screening at Forefront. They are foreseen as members who will largely benefit from the institution, as well as mainly contribute to it, what with their proprietary ideas and advanced investment strategies.

Trading ideas, knowledge, and experience is done within the Instividual community through Forefront’s cutting-edge technology and 24-hour IT assistance, which gives community members access to proprietary equity research and analysis and other features focused on improving their trading experience.

Brad Reifler is one of the most trusted names in investment and trading. Fully aware that the business scene is an ever-changing one, he was able to adapt traditional investment policies to address the recent shift in the marketplace. Dislocations from the financial crisis of 2008 to 2010 gave way for the emergence of individual entrepreneurial investors running portfolios less than $250 million dollars, and, left with no business “home”, are incurring more expenses than usual because they do not have access to information that traditional investment institutions provide traditional investors with. Recognizing the potential in these home traders, he and his partners founded Forefront Advisory to provide “instividuals” more trading power.

From Bradley Reifler

Brad Reifler and Forefront Advisory gives individual investors access to resources that can help them improve the efficiency of trading their own capital. The Forefront Advisory community empowers individual investors by providing them with an institutional platform that allows them to enjoy the same benefits that, a few years ago, only traditional investors received from traditional investment institutions.

From Bradley Reifler

With the advantage of having financial data and banking information from traditional institutions right at their fingertips, instividuals now have the power and capability to be the strongest alpha generators in the playing field. And, since the Forefront Advisory community is comprised of industry experts, instividuals can benefit from the knowledge and information willingly provided by the members of the community. By forging a healthy symbiotic relationship, investors can rest assured that, not only are they making the best decisions investment-wise, they can also boost returns on their investments, even in the midst of an unstable economy.

Since 1982, Forefront Advisory CEO Brad Reifler has been actively immersed in institutional trading and finance, sales and execution of global derivatives, commodity-based and foreign exchange trading strategies, and the development of custom-investment programs for high-net-worth clients. Over time, he and his colleagues noticed the changing face of the market: entrepreneurial investor types were now rubbing elbows with traditional investors who dealt with investment banks and more sizable funds.

It’s been historically proven that investors managing portfolios of less than $250 million become the biggest “alpha generators” once given a break. The big difference between institutional clients and the individual investor lay in the fact that smaller securities tend to generate excess returns with no additional risk. With this in mind, Brad Reifler founded Forefront Advisory in 2009 with partners David Wasitowski, Meriwether Lewis and Renee Noto. The missing link between institutional investors and individual home traders, Forefront Advisory gives alpha generators a platform that allows them institutional allocations, while at the same time providing excellent non-correlated, risk-adjusted returns to institutions.

By exposing traditional institutional investors to top notch asset managers who employ multi-strategy trading techniques and are free of the burden of asset deployment, and by making studied capital allocations from its master fund, Forefront forecasts possible losses on both micro and macro-levels, getting investors generous returns with little to no additional risks.

Founder and CEO Bradley Reifler explains why Forefront Advisory has a very tedious and strenuous screening process for aspiring members.

From Bradley Reifler

While majority of other firms focus on large funds and ventures, Forefront focuses on the individual needs and development of its traders; for this reason, a Forefront member is called an InstiVidual. Since Forefront only accepts the best, most talented and experienced traders, advisors, and investors, there is a holistic environment which maximizes trade ventures, with a well-formed support system of experienced brokers. InstiViduals are known for their passion and knowledge in the industry, which is how they are given assistance on how to maximize profit and earnings.

From Bradley Reifler

Bradley Reifler says that though acceptance to Forefront Advisory is free, the firm’s renowned name and stature demands that only the most experienced are accepted. Each candidate undergoes rigorous screening processes which determine their levels of integrity, professionalism, and trading experience. Applicants must also be high net worth individuals with at least US$10 million in investable assets, with several years of experience in trading. Only aspirants who meet these qualifications, and who pass the screening process are welcomed to the elite circle.

From Bradley Reifler

With such strict requirements, Reifler ensures that only the brightest traders who can contribute to the Forefront community are accepted. More information about instividuals, and the company are available at www.forefrontadvisory.com.

Just after a year from its inception, Forefront Advisory has built an influential, unique trading platform for high net worth traders, sophisticated investors, and expert advisors in a synergistic investment community. Bradley Reifler, the company’s Founder and Chief Executive Officer, is now gearing to take this platform to a new level with Forefront Wealth Advisory.

In response to the continuously evolving trading activities of Forefront InstiViduals, the Forefront Wealth Advisory product offers members the opportunity to develop their trading activities beyond their own personal book while maintaining the membership advantages of Forefront’s trading platform, infrastructure, and elite community.

From Bradley Reifler

Through this partnership, InstiViduals turned advisors may take advantage of the company’s established trading platform, proprietary research infrastructure, and training programs.

Bradley Reifler, having founded the company himself, recognizes those who wish to realize the ambition of becoming an independent wealth manager and provides them with the tools to obtain independence with significant financial, regulatory, branding, and management support.

Going forward in this direction, it is only fitting that the company capitalizes on market-leading products and offers wealth managers Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) as a wealth management strategy. With the growth of assets in the ETF industry skyrocketing by 44% since October 2008, financial advisors are offered a new vehicle to diversify their client portfolios.

With Forefront Wealth Advisory, Reifler has once again strengthened Forefront Advisory, LLC’s influential and dynamic position in the global trading community.
