Our Investment Approach
Since the firm's founding in 2001, 361° Capital's investment approach has been risk-based and mirrored the successful academic endowment models followed at well-respected institutions, such as Harvard and Yale. The basic premise of the endowment model is to carefully control risk and to leverage expertise internally and externally in an effort to achieve wealth preservation and wealth creation through all market cycles.
The difference between our approach and traditional money managers is that we attempt to protect and build wealth when the market is going up or down. We don't subscribe to the traditional long-only "buy and hold" model that has resulted in investors suffering significant portfolio losses in recent years. We study the market every day and know that our clients are best served when we are nimble and forward-thinking in our investment approach and reallocate our client portfolios as needed.
At 361° Capital, we use the full spectrum of investment vehicles (ETFs, long/short strategies, currencies, real assets, etc.) to achieve our clients' investment goals. The combination of our internal research and expertise and our careful selection of skilled external money managers gives our clients an edge.
