While we do manage pooled investment capital, our managed account structure is not co-mingled and all assets are held directly in the client’s name known as (SMA) separately managed account. This allows our partners real-time transparency, no-lockups, and greater control over their assets. 

While the SMA structure allows clients to withdraw at any time, we recommend that clients only invest assets with a minimum 3-5 year time frame as this fits our long/short portfolio approach. 

Clients must be qualified and meet the firm minimum of $500,000 for the long/short SMA portfolio – accounts are held at Charles Schwab & Co. or Interactive Brokers.

We are concentrated in building portfolios of 6-12 holdings. We look for companies and situations where there is some type of catalyst that will unlock value within a 3-24 month period. 

The long/short approach is largely centered around US equities, however, we maintain an opportunistic approach that allows us to invest long/short across asset classes globally to generate portfolio returns.

A portion of portfolio capital is allocated toward active-management so that we can capture both tactical and event-driven trading opportunieis to generate portfolio returns while the core positions mature.
