Academic Advisory
Research design, evidence Distillation, and strategic guidance for institutions making consequential decisions.
- Research methodology
- Policy & program evaluation
- Advanced statistical modeling
What we do
Where academic rigor meets the realities of capital, our work is designed to move decisions forward.
We keep both disciplines under one roof because they sharpen each other: the patience of academic research tests every investment assumption, and the discipline of capital allocation keeps research honest about what is actually usable in a portfolio. The result is advice that is rigorous where it should be and pragmatic where it must be.

A considered process
We start with the question behind the question, then build a point of view that is transparent enough to challenge and durable enough to use.
Engagement model
Most relationships begin with a scoped project and, where it fits, move to an ongoing retainer. Specific terms (retainer range, project fee, minimum assets under management) are confirmed in writing after an introductory conversation.
A defined research or advisory mandate with a clear scope, deliverable, and timeline. Suited to one-off decisions and board-level second opinions.
Continuous access to research, portfolio perspective, and a named advisor for institutions and families with standing needs.
Indicative minimums apply to investment advisory relationships and are confirmed in the engagement letter. Research mandates are scoped per project.
Specific fees, minimums, and regulatory disclosures are set out in the engagement letter and on our legal & disclaimer page. Nothing here is an offer to provide advisory services, which are formalized only in a written agreement.
