Our portfolio construction and management solutions have been designed to help investors maximize investment performance and effectively manage their portfolio.

Tailored Advice
Landmark Financial has a long standing tradition of offering high quality tailored advice to investors anywhere in the world.
Our advisers work in partnership with you to understand your unique requirements and develop an investment strategy and advice that best conforms to your financial situation, investment goals and appetite for risk.
Style of advice
You will only receive as much professional advice and support as you require allowing you to decide the level of participation in the creation and management of your share portfolio.
IPO’s and Capital Raisings
As a Landmark Financial client, you may have the opportunity to access Initial Public Offerings and – depending on your level of experience – other equity capital raisings.
If the company has never issued equity to the public, an Initial Public Offering (IPO) would be the first sale of stock by the company to the public. Whilst there are many reasons why a company may decide to go public, the main one is the opportunity to access additional capital for use in the business. The company raises this money by issuing either debt or equity in the form of shares.
Other capital raisings may involve the issue and sale of securities to a small number of investors instead of the general public. Unlike with a public offering, a formal prospectus does not have be provided for a private placement and thus it is often restricted to experienced or sophisticated investors that have a strong understanding of the process and risks involved.
Options & Warrants
We provide a derivatives service allowing experienced Landmark Financial clients to take advantage of more sophisticated exchange traded products.
Our accredited and experienced advisers have access to a range of exchange traded option and warrant products. Due to the potentially high risk nature of derivatives, it is important that any prospective investor speaks with their adviser prior to trading derivatives.
Reasons for considering derivatives
Increase income on a portfolio through selling premiums
Protect a portfolio (hedging) to reduce risk from a highly volatile period in the market
Gain a leveraged position into a top listed company
Trade movements on an index
Lock in a purchase or sale price now and decide later for a fraction of the cost.

From the what really happened website:
Here is a nightmare scenario for you.
1. Israel and the US create Stuxnet.
2. Stuxnet is deployed to wreck Iran's nuclear power station.
3. But Stuxnet escapes from its intended target and spreads across Asia!
4. As the above article documents, Stuxnet was in Japan last October, presumably still spreading and intended to wreck nuclear power plants. Here is another story about Stuxnet being in Japan and infecting computers last October.
5. Stuxnet targets the Siemens controller
6. The head of the IAEA only last month warned that Stuxnet posed a threat to all nuclear power stations around the world! And Fukushima uses the Seimens controllers Stuxnet was designed to interfere with!
So now ...
Global markets tumble after another selloff in Japan. U.S. stocks are set to open sharply lower. General Electric, which designed the nuclear reactors in the Japanese plant in danger of melting down, falls 6%. Crude oil drops below $98 per barrel.
AMAGASAKI â
A city government in Hyogo Prefecture has rejected a residentâs application to obtain newly instituted benefits designed to aid families with children after the man, a South Korean national, attempted to apply for 554 children who he said were adopted in Thailand, a city official said Saturday.
The Health, Labor and Welfare Ministry issued earlier this month a notice detailing some conditions for children residing abroad and others to be eligible for the benefit such as being in the same household and individually approved by the local municipal government.
In it, the ministry cites a case of a foreign national who has adopted 50 orphans in their home country as an example of being ineligible.
The monthly allowance, to be disbursed from June, is set at 13,000 yen per child, which would come to just over 86 million yen per year for the 554 children.
The ministry said this is the first time that someone has tried to file an application for several hundred children at one time. The child benefit law enacted in March does not require residency in Japan for eligible children, generating concerns in some quarters about abuse.
According to the Amagasaki municipal government, the man, who appeared to be in his 50s, visited the city office on Thursday and applied for the child benefit by showing documents that he said were certified by Thai authorities, along with translations, that showed the names of the children and their birth dates.
The man said the children he adopted include those in a monastery in Thailand, where his wife comes from, according to the city.
Aware of the ministryâs earlier notice, the city immediately consulted the ministry and decided not to accept the application.
