Achieving milestones like this is important in the highly competitive investment industry it's even more important for firms like Green Alpha that employ unique investment philosophies and processes. As they prove that their methods work as intended, clients are increasingly drawn to Green Alpha's strong results. "We founded Green Alpha to fill a void in the marketplace. Negatively-screened ESG portfolios were only doing part of the job needed to preserve and grow investment capital. At a previous firm we had been doing traditional negative screening to run mutual funds, while simultaneously selecting private equity investments for a well-known family office. In doing so, we realized that marrying a private equity like approach to seeking out the most innovative companies creating solutions to our greatest risks with traditional public equity securities analysis was likely to be a winning combination," said Green Alpha co-founder Jeremy Deems. "Since we created our proprietary Next Economy investment philosophy and research priorities from scratch, investors needed to see proof that our portfolio theories would be prudently applied to achieve the impressive results that we believed they would achieve. Now that our oldest portfolio has a 12-year track record, and all five of our proprietary portfolios are outperforming their benchmark across all major time frames, the industry is catching on to our way of executing," reports co-founder Garvin Jabusch.
