World Freedom Select

J.W. Burns & Company is proud to announce that Jim Sanderson, former chief investment officer of Cornell University and former president of Sanderson and Stocker, has joined J.W. Burns & Company as a senior portfolio manager. He also brings his innovative investment portfolio, the World Freedom Select Strategy, into our already successful line of investment services.

  • Individuals throughout the world seek to be free but are often thwarted by lack of property rights, corrupt legal systems, punitive taxes, trade restrictions, over-regulation, and other harmful government policies. At J.W. Burns & Company, we firmly believe that to permanently and effectively raise living standards, people must enjoy economic freedom. How best to help people attain a better living standard? By investing in capital markets of countries that champion economic freedom. We scan the globe looking for countries currently experiencing increase in economic freedom. Using proprietary methods, we thoroughly research and analyze potential countries for inclusion in our landmark strategy.
  • Economic Freedom: Countries that uphold economic freedom enjoy:
      Higher socio-economic well being
      Longer life expectancies
      Lower utilization of child labor
      High literacy rates
      Higher GDP growth rates
      Higher equity market valuations

  • In a recent study completed by Jim Sanderson's former college, Marshall Stocker, countries with increasing levels of economic freedom experience higher equity returns compared to countries with decreasing levels of economic freedom.
