OUR PHILOSOPHYMountain Pacific Advisors is an independent investment management company focused on assisting large, sophisticated institutions with attaining their investment goals and objectives. By leveraging sophisticated quantitative techniques, we manage a mix of highly scalable, alpha-seeking strategies to create customized, liability focused, adaptive solutions. Our core competency is the ability to measure and manage financial risks, which is central to the management of MPA's strategies. We add value by forecasting risk as opposed to the more traditional approach of forecasting return. This investment theme manifests itself in the portfolio construction process, which aides in enhancing returns and managing tail risk. Finally, we believe that encoding expert insights is more robust and scalable than relying on purely judgmental star / team approaches. Our approach helps control behavioral biases in the investment management process, while engendering objectivity and control. This approach was successfully employed by MPA's founder, Ron Liesching, in the management of over $50 billion of currency and global bond mandates at Pareto Partners, which he founded 1991. MPA offers the following strategies: Commodities Active Long and Emerging Markets Equities. MPA offers a highly differentiated, low risk & complementary approach to traditional active management styles. MPA provides: sustainable out performance, reduced left tail risk, active manager style diversification, and customized solution based investment management.
