Managing Alternative Investment Portfolios With David Armstrong

David Armstrong, portfolio manager for Cedar Capital, was Strategic Investor Radio’s very first guest when the program debuted in October 2014. In this episode, Mr. Armstrong is back with host Charley Wright, as the two men discuss Cedar Capital’s “unique and innovative investment strategies” and approach to portfolio construction.

Cedar Capital works exclusively with investment advisors who then maintain a personal relationship with clients. The firm’s Market Advantage Portfolios (“MAPs”) are held within separately managed accounts (“SMAs”) or investors can hold assets directly by copying Cedar Capital’s allocation weights. Those weights are based on models used by endowments and foundations, and generally break down to equal parts private equity (“PE”), absolute-return strategies, and commodity and real estate exposure. MAPs achieves or emulates those exposures through ETFs and mutual funds.
