Top-Down, Global Investment Approach

Our time-tested, top-down portfolio management approach starts by analyzing broad global economic, political and sentiment factors. Using that analysis, we find opportunities across investment categories before narrowing down to the specific securities we believe will perform well moving forward.

We are integrating ESG considerations into our investment processes.

ESG integration is the practice of incorporating ESG information into investment decisions to help enhance risk-adjusted returns, regardless of whether or not a strategy has a sustainable mandate. There is no one-size-fits-all approach but at Solaris Finance Management we see it as being about making research, data, and insights available to all of our portfolio managers, and working with them to identify potential process enhancements across all investment activities

Global Opportunities

We seek to maximize opportunities and manage risk by investing globally. Many investors wrongly focus solely on stocks from their home country. We believe this ignores vast investment opportunities. Home-country bias may also lead to a lack of portfolio diversification. Investing globally helps us take advantage of worldwide opportunities other money managers may miss

Top-Down Investing

We designed our unique top-down portfolio management process to increase the likelihood of delivering repeatable results. We focus on macroeconomic theme development, which aids our security selection by first identifying countries, sectors and industries that should outperform in the current market environment. We believe our process sets us apart from our competitors, who often use “bottom-up” approaches that see key sector or country decisions as secondary byproducts of stock picking.

As a Participant of the United Nations Global Compact,Solaris Finance Management is committed to aligning our operations with universal principles on human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption, and to take actions that advance societal goals.
