The Genesis Story

History of Effective Representation and Responsive Client Services

The landscape of individual and institutional investing underwent significant transformation in the 1980s and 1990s, driven by the growing impact of the landmark ERISA statutes from the 1970s. As these regulations gained traction, coupled with the increasing concern over the impending shortfall of Social Security, there was a rising urgency for more sophisticated investment strategies.

In this evolving environment, the modern investment management industry began to take shape. Lean, agile, and specialized portfolio management firms began to gain traction, as the demand for skilled, alpha-driven managers of stock and bond portfolios grew rapidly. The search for higher returns—beyond what traditional, passive investment approaches could provide—ushered in a new era of professional investment management.

Fertile Ground For Investment Managers

In this shifting landscape, nimble, specialized boutique investment firms proved their value, capturing market share from traditional asset management firms. It was during this era that the foundation of our firm was laid, starting with the launch of a predecessor firm in 1987 and the formal establishment of Genesis Marketing in 1993.

While many of the boutique investment houses from the 1980s and 1990s have since grown into industry giants, the demand from discerning institutional investors for agile, high-performing managers remains strong. This enduring appetite for excellence continues to be met by our firm and its carefully curated roster of top-tier investment talent.

For over three decades, our organization has identified and supported a select number of boutique and emerging managers in the industry. We have raised billions in assets, contributing to the investment success of individuals, pension funds, foundations, endowments, and more.
