Our Methodology
Process creates direction
Structured Investing | Consistent Outcomes
Markets Are Complex. Predicting Them Is Unreliable.
Our Approach Is Built On Structure - Not Speculation.
We Focus on Creating Repeatable Processes That Produce Consistent Outcomes Across Changing Environments. The AQI Factor Strategies, At Their Core, Are Systematic And Data-Centric, Designed To Focus On Company Attributes.
The Funnel Process
- Investable Universe (Defining the Landscape) - We begin with a broad, diversified universe of investable securities. Candidates for the AQI strategies are selected from applicable benchmark indexes, allowing for a diverse portfolio across industry and size.
- Identify Economic Regime (Assessing the Environment) - We evaluate economic conditions to understand how different factors behave within the current landscape. Factors can be over/underweighted to better suite the current economic environment.
- Multi-Factor Screen (Applying Factor-Based Screens) - We systematically evaluate securities using: Value | Quality | Momentum
- Fundamentals - We build portfolios based on composite scoring, diversification, and risk parameters. Companies are further screened on fundamental characteristics (ROIC, management, volume, etc.)
- Model (Constructing & Maintaining the Portfolio) - Portfolios are continuously monitored and rebalanced to maintain structure. The highest scoring stocks enter the model portfolio.

Although AQI prioritizes liquid stock strategies, it melds this with bespoke, high-caliber alternative investment management. Alternatives offer an additional pathway to enhance returns. The unique features of private markets can increase overall income, amplify growth, and reduce correlation with public markets.
As a core principle - process creates direction. The outcome is simple: consistency across portfolios, reduceded behavioral bias, and disciplined implementation.
