Our Investment Beliefs
WE BELIEVE...
The objective of investing is to increase the purchasing power of
capital over time.
To achieve a desired level of return, it is necessary to assume a certain
level of risk.
A portfolio should be forward looking.
Asset allocation is the largest determinant to overall portfolio returns.
Diversification is critical because the future is unknown.
Long-term investment strategies tend to offer better risk-adjusted returns than short-term strategies.
Private markets and illiquid assets can add value to a portfolio.
Risk can be controlled through diversification of asset classes and investment approaches.
True risk is a permanent loss of capital. Diversification can prevent behavior that leads to a permanent loss of capital.
Each investor’s tax situation is unique and a key component to investment selection and constructing an optimal portfolio.
Tax efficiency can be improved through the use of asset location in tax-advantaged or tax-deferred accounts.
The proper coordination of investments with philanthropic and estate planning can reduce the overall tax burden for investors.
Investment decisions should be supported by academic analysis and logical reasoning.
Transparency is a cornerstone of our investment approach.
