Partnership combines cutting-edge investment strategies and
expands product offering capabilities
Barclays today announced a strategic partnership with
Illinois-based investment firm Elkhorn Capital Group. The
partnership is designed to extend Barclays’ product availability by
bringing together its extensive experience in creating distinctive
investment concepts with Elkhorn’s independent product
expertise.
The partnership will allow Barclays and Elkhorn to collaborate
in offering clients access to additional products based on
Barclays’ strategies.
Barclays has a track record of producing novel investment
strategies, and in the past three years has announced partnerships
with Roubini Global Economics and with CAPE originator Professor
Robert Shiller. Additionally, in July 2014, Barclays launched its
first socially responsible investing strategy, the Women in
Leadership Index.
Elkhorn is pioneering a new chapter in investment management by
developing a wide array of investment structures – including on
UITs, ETF-linked and market-linked solutions – based on world-class
research.
Fabien Labouret, Global Head of EFS Investment Strategies at
Barclays, commented: “This partnership allows us to offer our
clients an expanded range of investment opportunities. We’re
enhancing efficiency in product delivery, and matching that with
innovation in investment content. Elkhorn’s multi-dimensional setup
is very complementary to Barclays’ business, and very aligned to
investors’ needs.”
Ben Fulton, Elkhorn’s founder and CEO, commented: “We are seeing
a greater demand for more custom investment products across a
variety of market segments. By partnering with Barclays, we are
able to offer clients a range of innovative investment
opportunities. We are excited to bring Barclays’ expertise as a
complement to our existing partners, including Dorsey Wright &
Associates, to provide a unique and leading combination that meets
the needs of today’s advisors.”
Elkhorn was established as a registered investment advisor and
regulated broker dealer in 2013 focusing on collaborative research
delivered through multiple product access points.
