ARISTOTLE ATLANTIC
Aristotle Atlantic Partners, LLC is a privately owned, registered investment adviser that specializes in equity portfolio management for institutional and individual clients worldwide. We are one of four independent investment teams which collectively operate under a unified platform known as Aristotle. Our mission is to add value with active portfolio management to help our clients reach their long-term financial goals.
INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY
We believe a foundation of successful investing can be attained by identifying companies that are poised to benefit from secular themes, product cycles or industry trends. As a result, by identifying these factors early on through fundamental, bottom-up research of companies, products and economic cycles we believe consistent risk-adjusted returns can be achieved while mitigating risk over multi-year time horizons.
SECULAR THEMES
We seek to understand longer-term shifts in spending across various industries and geographies that may greatly impact a business
PRODUCT CYCLES
Sector-specific analysts use industry knowledge and market research to find business with superior products/brands, strong intellectual property or patents, and the ability to grow market share
CYCLICAL TRENDS
We aim to identify strong end markets and select companies with capable management teams that have the potential to take advantage of cyclical tailwinds to drive company and stock performance
INVESTMENT PROCESS
which is part of the continuous monitoring that occurs during portfolio construction.

COMMITMENT TO COMMUNITY
At Aristotle, we are committed to active participation in our communities both locally and internationally. We partner with a number of outstanding organizations and nonprofits that advance health, education, the arts and human services not only to support their valuable missions but also to enrich our own lives through teamwork and continuous learning. From walking to support St. Jude to mentoring youth to volunteering in neighborhoods in great economic need, Aristotle strives to make a meaningful difference in our communities.
Each Holiday Season, Aristotle makes a monetary donation on behalf of our clients to a charity determined by our employees. In the past, our contributions have included Disabled American Veterans, the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund and American Red Cross (Hurricane Harvey Relief).
In 2018, Aristotle contributed to Direct Relief on behalf of our clients in support of relief efforts related to California wildfires. The funds will be distributed to help rescue, shelter, feed and heal the impacted communities in California.
