HOW WE THINK
Our philosophy is rooted in modern portfolio theory (MPT).
We embrace the central tenant of MPT, which concludes that diversification is the key to optimal returns over time.
But, we think investors should "spend" risk, not dollars/assets (MPT).
Our risk-based approach allows us to:
Ensure that expected returns are commensurate with the risk taken
Identify potential risks, understand and evaluate the sources of these risks
Make conscious decisions as to which risks makes sense and which risks to avoid
Combining diversified risk allocated portfolios with intelligent selection of building materials and superior operation of the portfolio is the art and science of seeking the perfect portfolio.
THE ART + SCIENCE
of seeking perfect portfolios
Anfield’s investment management process is a constant feedback loop between research, portfolio construction and risk management.
Our investment process combines diversified, risk allocated portfolios with intelligent selection of building materials and superior operations capabilities to perfect the art and science of portfolio management.
