Foreign Equity: Guardian Capital LP, i³ Investments

In a converging global market, the i³ Investments Team at Guardian Capital LP is focused on selecting the best companies within each sector, regardless of geography. We achieve this with bottom-up systematic research.

i³ Investment’s quantitative process uses a combination of relative, intrinsic and artificial intelligence models to rank companies within each economic sector. Through the daily screening of company fundamentals, we seek to isolate stock selection as the primary source of value add, as our research shows that comparing the rate of change in company fundamentals within a sector can add value. Intrinsic analysis is conducted to arrive at valuation targets and projections. Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning through big data applications are implemented to predict model outcomes with greater accuracy.

We understand that markets are not always rational; therefore, our portfolio management team discusses portfolio recommendations at length to ensure the model output is consistent and economically relevant in changing market environments.

We offer domestic and foreign equity strategies based on a systematic investment analysis methodology as well as blending both quantitative and qualitative elements to identify companies that we believe will add value to our clients’ portfolios.
