Freedom managed accounts providing flexibility to meet your individual needs
We work together with our AMS team to select the appropriate Freedom portfolio based on your unique risk tolerance and investment goals. Along with our AMS team, we use the Freedom platform to construct investment portfolios that focus on asset allocation and diversification to help us support your long-term goals.
We feel that clients can greatly benefit from the quality research and portfolio construction that distinguish our Freedom portfolios, including manager selection, asset allocation and ongoing due diligence. Freedom portfolios require fewer assets than our Relative Strength or SMA/UMA portfolios. They can serve as a standalone diversified portfolio, or as a complement to a more complex investment strategy for larger households.
Why Freedom?
- Comprehensive investment process utilized
throughout our full range of portfolio options - A fee-based account that ties your portfolio success to your dedicated financial advisor
- Disciplined, annual rebalancing to keep asset allocations in line with your long-term objectives
- Access to RJFreedom.com for helpful Freedom facts, portfolio summaries, commentary and news
Further information on the funds selected for the Freedom portfolios is available by prospectus, which can be obtained through our office. Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the Freedom portfolios before investing. The prospectus contains this and other information about the funds and should be read carefully before investing.
In a Freedom account, clients pay a quarterly fee, based on the level of assets in the account, for the services of a financial advisor as part of an advisory relationship. In deciding to pay a fee rather than commissions, clients should understand that the fee may be higher than a commission alternative during periods of lower trading. Advisory fees are in addition to the internal expenses charged by mutual funds and other investment company securities. To the extent that clients intend to hold these securities, the internal expenses should be included when evaluating the costs of a fee-based account. Clients should periodically reevaluate whether the use of an asset-based fee continues to be appropriate in servicing their needs. These additional considerations, as well as the Freedom fee schedule, are listed more fully in the Client Agreement and the Raymond James & Associates Wrap Fee Program Brochure and Brochure Supplement.
Investing involves risk and you may incur a profit or loss. There is no assurance that any investment strategy will be successful. Asset allocation and diversification do not ensure a profit or protect against a loss.

Freedom ESG portfolios offer a sustainable investing opportunity that allows you to align your investment goals with socially conscious values. The ESG portfolios utilize mutual funds as an investment vehicle and are available in three objectives: Balanced, Balanced with Growth, and Growth.

Freedom Hybrid portfolios combine carefully examined mutual funds and exchange traded funds (ETFs) with the objective of providing a more cost-effective approach to accessing active portfolio management. The addition of ETFs allows for fewer positions within each portfolio and may offer greater tax-efficiency. These portfolios are available in seven core investment approaches, ranging from conservative to aggressive.
Sustainable investing may incorporate criteria beyond traditional financial information into the investment selection process. This could result in investment performance deviating from other investment strategies or broad market benchmarks. Please review any offering or other informational material available for any investment or investment strategy that incorporates sustainable investing criteria, and consult your financial professional prior to investing.

The process of rebalancing may result in tax consequences. Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses of mutual funds carefully before investing.

Our team measures and shares performance with our clients quarterly. Clients are under no obligation to remain in the portfolios for a specified length of time and may terminate the agreement at any time. Although there is no guarantee that objectives will be achieved, these guidelines provide goals and rationale for what we believe is a prudent investment course and standards against which we will measure progress.
Technical analysis is only one form of analysis. Investors should also consider the merits of fundamental and quantitative analysis when making investment decisions. Technical analysis is based on the study of historical price movements and past trend patterns. There is no assurance that these movements or trends can or will be duplicated in the future.
