High Grade Fixed Income
Samson’s High Grade strategies seek to add value by actively enhancing return for clients by utilizing a conservative, disciplined, capital preservation focused investment process.
Samson’s Short Duration, and Core Intermediate strategies are designed for investors with varying income objectives and degrees of tolerance for principal volatility.
Samson’s Liquidity and Enhanced Liquidity Strategies have a duration range of 0-0.75 years. They are designed for investors with absolute return objectives, and are customized to capital needs.
While our sector allocation strategies are a function of our top-down investment process, our security selection process is a bottom-up approach that seeks to provide fiduciaries with a transparent investment product that enhances their ability to conduct effective oversight. We believe risk management is a critical component of investment management for capital preservation oriented investors.
