Investment Management
As a Chartered Financial Analyst® with extensive experience in financial modeling, market research, and portfolio construction, we are well-positioned to provide you with professional asset management services to meet your goals.
Our investment philosophy is rooted in:
An academic approach to portfolio construction
Core allocation to low cost and tax-efficient strategies
Satellite exposure to long term secular trends expected to outgrow GDP
Diversification to protect against different market scenarios (e.g, inflation, higher interest rates)
Investing with a long term view rather than trying to time the markets
