Separate Account Strategies

We offer a broad range of carefully researched factor-based investment strategies designed to align with client objectives — from micro cap to large cap value, and including multi-capitalization and international strategies. Our quantitative investment philosophy is rooted in the concept of Factor AlphaSM — characterized by the fundamental belief that factors drive equity returns and should be applied from the bottom-up to build more concentrated portfolios, rather than "smart" indexes. Our process is grounded in research of the U.S. market dating back to 1927 and global market back to 1970. This research allows us to seek innovative ways to continually improve our factor expertise.
