SLC Management employs bottom-up security selection and they are actively managing portfolios to seek relative value. The firm is looking for risk that is fundamentally or technically mispriced in order to find investment opportunities.

Ryan Labs Asset Management specializes in managing fixed-income portfolios that are customized to meet institutional clients' unique duration needs. The firm's strategies include Liability Driven Investing (LDI) strategies which are managed versus a Custom Liability Index, as well as enhanced market strategies which are managed against traditional fixed-income benchmarks. Ryan Labs' investment approach seeks to neutralize interest rate risk and add value through sector rotation and issue selection. They apply a disciplined investment process versus market indices or LDI strategies versus custom liability indices. Their objective is to meet clients' objectives with the least amount of total risk and total costs. Ryan Labs believes these objectives are best achieved through the use of structured portfolios with active issue selection and a passive interest rate prediction strategy. The firm believes interest rates are difficult to predict and need to be neutralized. Ryan Labs does not take active interest rate positions.
