ISA is an independent investment advisory and research firm which for over 20 years has been specializing in fixed

ISA maintains current and historic databases on the entire high yield bond and preferreds markets as well
as on defaulted municipal and corporate bonds.

OUR PHILOSOPHY:
1. We believe fixed income securities have a place in all investment portfolios no matter the age,

2. We make investment selection to suit low, medium and high risk investors and clearly identify which is which.
3. We advocate investment through diversification over a range of investment instruments as providing the
best route for low risk and high reward.
