Investment Philosophy
Asset Preservation Advisors believes that persistent pricing inefficiencies exist in the municipal bond market. They seek to capitalize on these inefficiencies and create value through rigorous credit research and active portfolio management. APA's mission is to protect their clients’ principal and enhance yields by investing in high quality investment grade municipal securities, primarily in the secondary market.
APA believe the buying and selling of municipal bonds must be strategically executed due to the nuances of this non-transparent, over-the-counter market where price markups and factors such as large supply and demand imbalances can meaningfully influence overall bond prices. APA’s deep municipal investment expertise combined with their extensive broker/dealer relationships best enable the team to seek the strongest execution for clients’ portfolios.
APA employs active account management and will modify portfolio structure due to changing market and yield curve conditions. They take this approach in an effort to mitigate volatility while seeking the most favorable risk/return profile for our clients.
