Portfolio Strategies


As an investor who is generally comfortable choosing your own funds, you may enjoy the freedom of independently building your own portfolio from scratch. But for investors who would like a bit more structure, GuideStone® offers portfolio models designed to help you direct your investment selections at the major asset class level.

Specifically designed as an asset allocation approach, our sample portfolio collection delivers structured alternatives to channel your fund choices into different major asset categories such as U.S. and non-U.S. equities, fixed income and cash. Once you select one of the following models, you can incorporate the funds available through your retirement plan in accordance with your model’s asset class framework.

In addition to initially selecting a portfolio model, it is important to reassess your portfolio periodically as your life stage and investment strategy shift over time. You are never locked into a portfolio model and always have the freedom to change your investment selections.

Keep in mind that models serve as a guide and do not represent financial advice. This approach does not guarantee earnings or protection from loss in a market decline.

These retirement portfolio models purely represent asset allocations. Specific fund choices are up to you as the investor.
