Individual investors, financial advisors, and institutional clients can benefit from WestEnd's high-conviction active portfolios. This approach is based on a macroeconomic and top-down analysis. This analysis complements the research and sector knowledge used in WestEnd's domestic and foreign market exercises. Markets cycle, risks evolve, and trends change. It takes discipline and experience to navigate these obstacles. We use extensive research and analysis to block out the noise, avoid biases, and focus on the fundamental picture. We use systematic analysis to identify the variables that affect returns and risk in every part of the economy and financial markets. We use this information to make high-conviction decisions.
