SELECTIVE
How do we produce excess returns for our partners? By being highly selective
in our investments. We only invest in the top 0.1% of securities, thereby vastly increasing our returns while keeping the downside to a minimum. In order to be highly selective, we developed systems that allow us to monitor 10, 000 securities and alert us on the best opportunities at any given time. Want to stay in the top 0.1%?
Wealthier We produce outstanding investment returns by being broad in monitoring scope and highly selective in investment choice.

financial conglomerate, the entity might have conflicting interests that might affect their investors. Other funds are very narrowly focused, either in strategy, industry, or country.
