Star Top Guns.
CorePlus strategy combines aspects of a traditionally managed portfolio with an active trading strategy. It
is focused primarily on generating income with a growth component. Client accounts will be invested
with the majority of the portfolio constructed to maximize income. A portion of the portfolio will be
available to participate in leveraged active trading. Incorporating short term trading strategies produces a
unique opportunity to decrease the amortization of core holdings and promote portfolio growth. This
strategy seeks to enhance the total return potential of client portfolios. The combination of investment
strategies provides the potential for higher yield and performance in a "blended" return.

municipal bonds. By using active management and margin accounts clients participate in trades that
many traditional fixed income managers are not able to replicate. A.H. Williams & Co separately
managed account (SMA) programs are specific to each client’s investment objectives and risk profile,
because each account is held directly by each individual client.
