Growth Focused Investment Management
Serving the Needs of Enterprising Individuals, Foundations and Endowments.
We are Active Money Managers
We are a boutique active money management firm best known for our Broadleaf Growth Equity Portfolio (BGEP). The BGEP is appropiate for clients seeking exposure to a growth oriented investment style for a portion of their overall investment portfolio. Our objective is to outperform the S&P 500 over a full market cycle on a net of fees basis, following our disciplined and dynamic portfolio management process.
In a climate where investors have come to accept average returns of passive investments as the new norm, we remain unabashedly committed to picking stocks and managing portfolios with the goal of delivering winning results. Too many investors have been indoctrinated into the view that they can’t outperform, and that it isn’t even worth trying.
We disagree!
Our Investment Process
Create
We actively research and select our favorite 25-35 growth stocks to create a portfolio that is designed to outperform the S&P 500 over the forecast period.
Manage
We manage the portfolio by closely following earnings trends, tracking performance of individual holdings through different market environments and employing our rigorous sell discipline.
Critique
Over time, we critique the investment returns as well as the changes we’ve made to ensure that we’re adding value and improving investor outcomes in the future.

We Can Also Help With Your Overall Investment Objectives
While best known for the BGEP, with its impressive long-term track record, we also offer additional comprehensive investment strategies. Our Strategic Investment Portfolios (STRIPs) are actively managed investment portfolios created for investors of varying risk tolerances and investment objectives. Many of our clients incorporate both the BGEP and STRIPs to achieve their overall investment objectives. We can help guide you to an asset allocation with which you are comfortable.
