Why choose Gresham?

There are four qualities that we believe distinguish Gresham from other firms.

We put clients first, by design.


Gresham is 100% owned by our senior professionals and we have implemented management and ownership succession strategies to preserve our commitment to independence. Additionally, the vast majority of our Partners net worth is invested in Gresham and managed alongside our clients’ assets. Show more

Unlike many of our competitors, we do not sell any proprietary products to clients who receive our wealth management services or get paid to sell other firms’ investment strategies. Compensation is driven by employee performance and it is designed to avoid the conflicts of interest and overzealous growth ambitions that cause many firms to lose their focus on client relationships and investment performance. We thrive when our clients thrive.

We reject conventional wisdom.


In our view, the investment industry revolves around practices developed for institutions, derived from dated academic studies. This conventional approach – from defining risk on a relative basis, to overemphasizing the value of asset allocation, to forcing managers into tight style boxes – hasn’t worked for other institutions and is inappropriate for our clients. Our approach is dramatically different. Show more

Instead of managing to benchmarks, we think about investing from the perspective of what’s important to families: growing their wealth while protecting their capital. We follow a disciplined process that enables us to identify uncommon investment themes and managers overlooked or unavailable to the majority of investors. Our approach, combining personalized strategic asset allocation with our qualitative evaluation of managers, is designed to deliver exceptional returns in both favorable and difficult environments.1

We offer extraordinary expertise and rigor in wealth planning.

We free families to simply live their lives.


We take responsibility for coordinating important activities related to our clients’ finances – which is a broad mandate that includes investment management, wealth planning, comprehensive reporting and collaborating with their other advisors – and bringing structure and simplicity to their lives.
