Preserver Partners LLC is an alternative asset management firm founded in August 2009. In January 2010, Preserver launched its first multi-manager portfolio. Our investment strategy is unique in its multi-asset, income-oriented investment approach. The primary investment vehicles are private investment partnerships that invest in equities, opportunistic fixed income, real estate strategies and alternative income strategies managed on behalf of high net worth and institutional investors. We intentionally deviate from the traditional 60/40 stock-bond portfolio in favor of active asset allocation between 10-12 investment strategies where there is high current income, potential for price appreciation, an adequate margin of safety and an ability to limit downside risks through intelligent risk bearing and active risk management. We stay within our circle of competence, are diligent and disciplined, match duration of partner capital with underlying investments, maintain prudent and meaningful diversification and avoid overpaying for our investments.
Our investment objective is to generate equity-like returns and attractive income generation. We focus on generating attractive returns commensurate with the amount of risk that we take without the expectation that we will outperform in every market environment. While our value-added is measurable and important, our returns are a function of the opportunity set presented by our investment universe, which is why we have a broad and flexible investment mandate. The only benchmark that we adhere to is to earn positive absolute returns without being exposed to large or permanent losses. We are an experienced and entrepreneurial team with a partner ethos, significant alignment of interests with our investors and a commitment to stewardship of investment capital and an unconventionality required for superior investment results.
