Clear Capital Management—the advanced money manager delivering leading portfolio performance combined with true business transparency.
Clear Capital Management is a new kind of Money Manager—we work to simultaneously maximize transparency, performance, and integrity. We don't accept the conventional wisdom of High ROI = High Risk. Rather, we focus on performance and protection of assets by demanding the same level of rigor we apply as engineers and scientists.
Our perspective on the market and its workings presents unique opportunities for our clients. Here is a snapshot of how we work:
Rigor. The Scientific Method. These are at the core of Clear Capital's approach. Founded by physicists and engineers, Clear Capital Management brings these values into all facets of our work. These values and technical backgrounds are well suited for the challenges of navigating today's financial markets.
Physicists, who are used to characterizing complex systems, not unlike today’s equity markets, have been making contributions to modeling finance for some time. Engineers developing solutions based upon models and insights are also required to thoroughly test product offerings well enough to pass many kinds of inspections and safety agency approvals before shipping a product or offering a service. High levels of professional rigor and due diligence are demanded of technical people to comply with industry standards. This same unrelenting rigor is the foundation of Clear Capital's approach.
Scientists and engineers, each with additional qualifications in finance, devised our algorithms and tested them against 20-year performance results of the S&P 500. While past results cannot predict the future, they can demonstrate strategies that did and didn’t work. Our scientists use the Scientific Method to eliminate what we consider to be poor strategies and identify those strategies that we feel offer better returns with lower risk.
Our method of selecting investments utilizes proprietary Natural Selection algorithms. Using an accurate simulator consisting of over 100,000 lines of code to study past market performance, our approach is designed to be quicker at assessing investment risks and opportunities in real time.
For our Vigilant and Sector Aware portfolios, the early detection of down markets is one of our foremost aims. By doing this, we endeavor to avoid giving up significant gains made during favorable market conditions. As our metrics begin to indicate a higher risk, we gradually protect the portfolio in a balanced response to the measured risk.
