Investment Philosophy

It is the firm’s strong belief that it is not necessary to sacrifice returns while investing according to the Catholic faith. Moreover, CBIS believes the competitive performance we seek to deliver will emerge from the firm’s ability to identify skilled investment managers and combine them in a fashion that improves the overall risk/return characteristics of an investment portfolio.

Multi-manager Structure

In an effort to best deliver a broadly diversified and disciplined set of investing solutions for Catholic investors, CBIS employs a “manager of managers” approach to portfolio development and management. Through extensive research and analysis, the firm seeks to hire the industry’s premier asset managers to sub-advise its portfolios.

The CBIS Investment Team conducts a thorough evaluation of managers before they are hired as sub-advisors. Once selected, CBIS sub-advisors are carefully monitored to ensure they are implementing their strategies while aiding CBIS with our active ownership goals and avoiding investment in companies which violate Catholic teaching.
