Founded in 2001, JC Clark Ltd. is a Toronto based independent investment firm that manages long/short equity portfolios on behalf of high net worth individuals and families, in addition to institutional investors and foundations. We have developed and maintained relationships with our existing clients for decades. Our unique investment approach strives to both protect and grow capital through various market conditions. The firm is committed to meeting the needs of our clients by aiming to preserve capital, attain outstanding risk-adjusted absolute returns, and by maintaining low correlations to the broad equity market indices whenever possible. By employing a unique value-based strategy that strives to deliver returns in all market conditions, we are able to offer our clients an attractive alternative to traditional funds whose returns may be highly dependent on overall equity market returns. With this approach, we strive to better manage risk by insulating client portfolios from the vagaries and volatility of the general markets. The principals of the firm have successfully executed alternative investment strategies for more than 10 years. We believe that all clients should be focused on maximizing long-term absolute returns, rather than short-term relative returns. Collectively, JC Clark Ltd. principals and employees are among the largest investors in our funds. This alignment of interests is a key element of a successful long-term relationship with our clients.
