Our strategy is based on the belief that smart diversification—informed by studying the long-term behavior of asset classes, which includes modeling their returns, volatilities, and cross correlations—thoughtful portfolio construction, and meaningful investment manager relationships leads to long-term success.
We bring our strategy to life by focusing on these key priorities:
Gaining—and Maintaining—Access to Global Investment Talent
By leveraging our expansive and long-standing network, we provide clients with exposure to well established, hard to access institutional investment managers. Gaining and maintaining access to these managers requires a bespoke network, hard work, patience, and investment acumen. Our investment process focuses on the quality of people and performance.
A Relentless Focus on Value
The price of an asset rarely equals its value—which we see as an opportunity. We believe it is both possible, and necessary, to estimate the true value of assets. Because asset classes are prone to periods of overvaluation and undervaluation, estimating their true value allows us to rebalance and reweight portfolios to manage risk and maximize performance.
The Art of Portfolio Construction
Strategically constructing a portfolio and deciding how to address a given asset class at a given time in a market cycle is an art more than a science. It requires knowing not only the best strategies and tactics to represent an exposure in a given asset class, but also how to extract the most value. We practice this art daily, and continually uncover lessons and insights.
Impact and ESG Investing
We offer a broad platform of intelligently designed and impact-minded solutions for our clients who wish to align their investment objectives with their values. As an extension of our commitment to investing with good people and companies taking action to benefit their community and the world at large, we align with clients who are interested in making a global impact by leveraging the deliberate use of their wealth. There is no “one size fits all” approach to impact investing and we work with clients to support their values and goals with an actionable impact investment strategy.
Our ability to truly collaborate with external advisors is unique. In building trust with them, we provide clients with the confidence that everyone is working toward the same goals.
