Investment Philosophy
Stanfield's primary goal is to provide our clients with
attractive, stable absolute returns while being exposed to a moderate
and acceptable level of risk. At Stanfield, we seek to accomplish this
goal by investing in the broad credit markets using seasoned, skilled
research professionals coupled with an active portfolio management process
that adheres to defined risk controls. We have further strengthened
our commitment to risk management with the addition of a dedicated risk
manager.
Our investment philosophy is based on a clear and disciplined ability
to evaluate and consistently apply information across the credit markets.
We begin with an informed view of each industry sector and an understanding
of all relevant participants across the credit spectrum. Stanfield's
well-developed investment platform ensures investors the skills and
experiences of highly trained analysts who can properly evaluate and
decipher the appropriate information. The result is portfolios designed
to consistently outperform the relevant market indices.
Years of experience have convinced us that inefficient markets are
capable of producing favorable returns, provided that commensurate risk
is avoided. Successfully accomplishing this objective requires the proper
combination of an experienced, dedicated team and a proven disciplined
investment process.
Our disciplined investment process allows us to seek out inefficient
credit markets for new business opportunities.
