Monitoring Accounts
Monitoring each account in your portfolio is very important. Monitoring
can help you understand the performance of each account. Monitoring
accounts can also provide alerts when changes occur in the account performance
or when changes occur in the objectives for which you maintain that
account. Such changes may raise questions or issues that signal the
need for a portfolio review.
The carrier for each of your accounts (bank accounts & CDs, mutual
funds, brokerage accounts, retirement accounts, special fund accounts,
insurance policies, general savings accounts, etc.) typically provides
periodic reports. You may receive some reports monthly; others may be
quarterly, and some reports arrive annually. More and more carriers
are providing account information online via the Internet. For many
of these, you can access the accounts directly from your own computer.
In addition, KFS has online access to information about accounts with
most carriers.
