Ampersand Portfolio Solutions was created on the premise that the greatest way to manage a portfolio is to add to it, challenging the idea that a portfolio has to be built based on “either/or” decisions. Many investment managers find themselves asking the same question when building a superior portfolio for their clients:

Which investments should I sell (or forgo) to maintain a meaningful exposure to alternative investments?

This challenging question inspired the formation of Ampersand Portfolio Solutions. Equinox Institutional Asset Management’s innovative and ground-breaking approach to asset management has received tremendous feedback and generated several thought-provoking conversations around one, simple thesis: We believe that you don’t have to choose – you can have both.

Ampersand Portfolio Solutions is a bespoke investment strategy offered through Equinox Institutional Management, LP (www.equinoxampersand.com).
