Smith Barney

Their investment approach is not based on trying to be the best all the time. Trying to generate the highest possible return usually means taking too much risk all too often this leads to the year's top performing funds being amongst next year's worst. Their investment style is different. By focusing on risk just as much as return, they seek to achieve attractive, consistent returns over the long term.
