Aug/100
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
TAMPA, FL [8/27/10] — Gator Capital’s Small Cap Portfolio has been selected by kaChing to be a featured portfolio on the kaChing.com platform. kaChing.com is the nation’s leading online destination that connects independent investment managers with individual investors. The Gator Small Cap Portfolio earned an Investing IQ of 154 based on the risk-adjusted returns, quality of investment rationale and adherence to the stated management style.
Gator Capital Management, a private investment management firm, manages concentrated portfolios of stocks of high-quality businesses. High-quality businesses have durable competitive advantages, business models with attractive economics and management teams dedicated to creating shareholder value. Historically, Gator Capital’s portfolios have had low turnover, which has allowed management teams time to create shareholder value and has reduced taxes for our clients.
kaChing evaluates investment managers based on Investing IQ, a proprietary data-driven metric that separates the lucky from the good. Investing IQ is based on some of the same factors used by Ivy League endowments to select investment managers: risk-adjusted returns, quality of investment rationale, and how closely a manager sticks to their stated investment style. An Investing IQ of at least 140 is required to be listed on the kaChing platform, and Gator Capital is one of a select group of investment managers from across the country that has achieved this status.
“We are extremely pleased and excited to be included on kaChing’s platform of leading investment managers,” commented Gator Capital’s Portfolio Manager Derek Pilecki. “kaChing has made an important innovation in the financial advisory business to give investors the tools and transparency to hire independent investment managers directly. Their scalable technology creates efficiencies for both the investor and the investment manager.”
“Many investment managers have difficulty providing low-cost investment management services for smaller clients. At Gator Capital, we have received requests for investment management from many individuals with smaller amounts to invest,” explained Pilecki. “By working with kaChing, we are now in a position to offer our Small Cap Portfolio to people with as little as $10,000 and open a channel for investors to invest in our portfolios directly online.”
