About Us
  • Built by wealth managers, for wealth managers

    Our strategies originate from decades of actual portfolio and asset allocation construction experience—solving for volatility, drawdowns, tax efficiency, and long-term outcomes—with a consistent focus on improving real-world outcomes that grow wealth for sophisticated investors.

  • Built for use in any asset allocation framework

    Each actively managed strategy is designed to fit cleanly into an investor's asset allocation framework and further diversify equity allocations.

  • Transparent, straight-forward investing approach

    We focus on high-active-share strategies that provide differentiated equity investments.

  • High conviction investing, not closet indexing

    Our portfolios reflect our conviction in our security choices, which drives high active share—not diluted benchmark replication.

What Does CresAlta Do?

CresAlta designs and manages varied, active investment strategies that can be configured as core and satellite positions to help investors enhance risk-adjusted return in asset allocation mixes.

CresAlta strategies are built to:

  • Deliver differentiated exposure complementing typical equity allocations

  • Enhance dividend income and long-term compounding

  • Improve diversification in increasingly concentrated markets

We offer actively managed equity strategies—including Small & Mid Cap, Global Dividend, Large Cap, All Cap, Natural Resources and others—with the flexibility to expand across vehicle types (ETF/SMA) and asset classes over time.

Since Inception

Why We Believe Active Management Is Valuable Right Now

Markets have never been more concentrated. The top 10 holdings in the S&P 500 now represent more than a third of the entire index — a level of concentration not seen in decades.1 Most passive ETFs simply amplify this index concentration risk, leaving investors silently over-exposed to a handful of stocks.

We believe that:

  • Less-efficient segments of the market offer differentiation and diversification
  • Asset classes such as U.S. small and mid-cap, foreign, or global equities can potentially offer meaningful diversification
  • Factors such as quality, dividends, and value are attractive means of differentiation
  • Research, conviction, and discipline can generate durable alpha

CresAlta's active approach seeks to target these opportunities.
