Most of our investment professionals have a majority of their families’ liquid net worth invested in our portfolios. Our interests are aligned with our clients' interests and we're in this together.
We take pride in our Main street roots and old school principles. Doing the right thing by people is in our bones. Earning our clients' trust by doing what we say we're going to do is a key value we live by every day.
Other companies have what we call "shiny object syndrome" - always searching for the next short term gain. Instead, we focus on value investing with the goal of maximizing long-term total return on capital.
