Speaker: Jeffery Markarian, Managing Director, Harbor Capital Advisors, Inc.
About the session: Researching investment managers can be a daunting and time-consuming task. The world of mutual funds and ETFs is constantly changing. New investment products are constantly coming to market while legacy products and investment styles go in and out of favor. How can an advisor sort through all the noise to get the desired outcomes without taking a significant amount of time away from growing their business? A thoughtful yet efficient process to investment manager research is essential. While there is no one right way, having a structured process utilizing the available resources allows an advisor to focus on what matters most. In this session, Harbor Capital Advisors, a firm that has been conducting manager research for over 45 years, shares best practices and how advisors can create a strong manager due diligence program while limiting time away from their clients.
