The pursuit of excellence – as a manager, partner, and employer – drives everything we do. We also value accountability, compassion, courage, fairness, and independence. And these values manifest in our thoughtful, high-touch service; in our firm-wide intellectual curiosity and deep industry expertise; and in our transparency with both clients and colleagues. Empathy is not a hindrance, nor is it incompatible with risk and investing. In fact, we think it provides an edge.
A key differentiator is our stability, which stems from our independent ownership. We’re largely employee-owned and aren’t beholden to the interests of a corporate parent. Therefore, we’re able to maintain an entrepreneurial zeal that allows us to pursue the best opportunities in the marketplace as we see them arise. Our independence and spirit of innovation have driven remarkable employee tenure, which helps reduce turnover risk for our clients.

Thought Leadership
Quarterly International Equity Strategy Q2 2026
August 7, 2026
Q2 saw a sharp risk-on rally as easing Middle East tensions and renewed AI-buildout conviction reversed Q1's energy shock, with non-U.S. markets—especially hardware- and semiconductor-heavy economies—leading the rebound. Given the speed of thd reversal and July's renewed volatility for both geopolitics and AI sentiment, we continue to favor staying diversified rather than tied to one theme, country, or style, while still expecting non-U.S. equities to lead over a multi-year horizon due to broad participation, attractive valuations, and structural tailwinds.
