Dynamic, Disciplined, & Transparent
Process Over Prediction
RiverFront currently offers model investment portfolios, including Fixed Income, Balanced, and Equity solutions for a range of investment objectives, risk tolerances, and investment themes. These portfolios are accessed through wrap fee programs at various sponsor firms or through model delivery programs ("MDPs"). RiverFront also serves as sub-adviser to certain exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and mutual funds (“Mutual Funds”).
Process over Prediction: Our investment philosophy is rooted in the following beliefs:
- “Price Matters®”- We have a view of relative value of asset classes, countries, sectors, and individual securities.
- “People Matter”- We believe in the wisdom and experience of our portfolio managers.
- “Information Matters”- We believe in analytical support for our macro and fundamental decisions.
While we believe building prediction engines are important, we also believe building an unemotional, adaptable discipline that is consistently applied gives investors the best chance of long-term success. Our tactical and risk management disciplines have built-in flexibility, so if unforeseen events happen, our strategy adapts in real time.
The Art & Science of Dynamic Investing: We think that exceptional investing involves both sides of the brain, the scientific AND the creative. The scientific part of our process involves the careful and rigorous quantitative study of large quantities of historical data, looking for repeatable patterns. This scientific starting point helps us understand the odds, stay intellectually honest, and not be unduly swayed by emotion.
We believe there is a great deal of ‘art’ in how our team uses our collective experience, intuition and creativity to interpret that data and make decisions. We believe it’s an ‘and’ world, and that quantitative and qualitative analysis is most powerful when married together.
All investments in securities, including the strategies and methodologies discussed above and below, include a risk of loss of principal (invested amount) and any profits that have not been realized. Markets fluctuate substantially over time, and have experienced increased volatility in recent years due to global and domestic economic events. Performance of any investment is not guaranteed.
