Strategic insight and tactical support for foundations

Working with an endowment or nonprofit, your work is important and has singular challenges to adhere to your organization’s mandate.  We understand the responsibilities required to manage significant assets and your desire to uphold your foundation’s mission in the years to come.

Our team serves as an extension of the investment committee and provides critical support in helping to fulfill fiduciary responsibilities. We help you implement strategies designed to effectively manage the foundation’s portfolio, stewardship duties and spending policy needs.

Through tactical asset allocation, we develop adaptable portfolios that seek to meet the objectives of your Investment Policy Statement. Our advisors tap into our extensive resources and conduct objective research to find investment opportunities that we believe are worthwhile, align with your values and contribute to the sustainability of your foundation.

Our relationship with you and your organization is ongoing, and we are diligent in monitoring and rebalancing portfolios to help ensure they stay consistent with your long-term goals. We’re as deeply invested in your foundation’s success as you are.
