THINK OF FIRST QUADRANT AS AN INVESTMENT TASK
FORCE: NIMBLE, FOCUSED, AND GLOBAL.
First Quadrant is first and foremost an
investment firm focused steadily on achieving investment
success. We're specialists, with a business profile that is relatively
unique.
BOUTIQUE-SCALED >We’re large enough to manage a broad and diverse product
range, but small enough to respond quickly to opportunities.
NIMBLE >Investment opportunities
and investment risk can shift quickly. We must be flexible and agile in our response.
FOCUSED >We only work in
the areas of equity and global macro. That is what we’ve always done.
GLOBAL >Clients in N. America,
Europe, Asia, Australia, and the Middle East.
We have the fortitude to stand alone, to resist the pull of
the investment fad and trend. Some of our most profitable
investment decisions take place during periods of market dislocation…precisely
when other investors are battening down the hatches.
As we look back on our 20 years of management, our vision for First Quadrant is to continue
to grow as an efficiently managed specialty shop providing consistent alpha and
high-touch service.
