About EventShares
Investment Management Firm
The Firm
EventShares is an investment manager focused on legislation and regulation coming out of Washington, D.C. In our view, investors too often passively consume policy as a series of one-time, market-moving headlines. The EventShares approach reverses this process by first aiming to identify policy winners and losers and then overlaying the firm’s macro viewpoint utilizing both fundamental and quantitative research.
Our clients include financial advisors, institutions, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals. Our principals have made significant investments in our products, which we believe aligns us with our investors and demonstrates our commitment to the investment strategies we employ.
