Why BLA outperforms the market and peers

Costs Matter

Mandates and Constraints

Markets Are Efficient

High fees and frequent trading eat away at returns. Index funds, by contrast, keep costs low and let compounding do the heavy lifting.

Markets Are Efficient

Public markets reflect information quickly. Beating the market consistently requires rare insight—and even then, luck often plays a bigger role than most admit.

Mandates and Constraints

Many managers are limited by rigid guidelines that prevent them from acting decisively, even when the data supports it.

Short-Term Pressures

Mandates and Constraints

The pressure to perform every quarter can lead to reactive decisions—buying high, selling low, and chasing trends that don’t last.

The Zero-Sum Reality

Short-Term Pressures

The Zero-Sum Reality

Collectively, active managers are the market. Before fees, half will outperform. After fees, most won’t.

What truly differentiates us is that we know when to take gains and de-risk. Many traditional wealth and asset managers stay invested too long—often because they feel compelled to justify their fees. We don’t believe in riding trends to the top and then watching them fall. Our disciplined, quantitative model helps us lean in when the odds are favorable and take profits when the risk-reward balance shifts.

This approach—humble, rules-based, and long-term—puts your capital in a better position to grow steadily and securely over time.
