Philosophy & Process

Our Investment Philosophy and Process

Columbia Management offers a complete array of fundamental and quantitative equity strategies, as well as taxable, tax-exempt and short-term fixed-income solutions. As diverse as they are, all of our investment strategies share a common foundation: a commitment to independent research and the disciplined application of well-articulated investment processes.

Rather than rely on the talent or judgment of one individual, we take a team-oriented approach to investing. We leverage the diverse experience and expertise of our people - including strategists, portfolio managers, research analysts and traders - to bring exceptional insight to all of our investment management activities.

Each investment team uses an established, research-driven framework for generating investment ideas. By relying on independent research, these teams can evaluate potential investments more thoroughly and manage risk more carefully.

We believe this comprehensive analysis and unbiased, collaborative decision making should enhance our ability to sustain strong results for our clients. Learn more about our philosophy and processes for each investment strategy by visiting our Investment Strategies section.
