Expertise
Our most precious resource and our capacity to distinguish ourselves reside in the talent, the expertise and the sense of innovation of our team.
Employee focus
We pay special attention to our employees, their expectations and their professional development.
Integrity
We require a high level of ethic, honesty and righteousness in our daily actions, and reflect it in our commitments and our policies.
Client focus
We focus our efforts on client satisfaction and prioritize maintaining long-term relationships with them and with our business partners.
Rigorousness
We distinguish ourselves by our rigor in every activity, and at every level of the organization.
Risk management

Our Investment Philosophy
Optimum Asset Management is actively committed to maximizing its clients’ long-term returns while protecting their capital. To do so, we apply a high-tech, disciplined management approach based on thorough analysis of securities and issuers, well-defined risk management and sound investment selection.
Each of our strategies has been developed with a specific process that integrates four types of analysis (fundamental, technical, market sentiment and seasonality) with the application of specific quantitative filters. As a result, we can offer each client a portfolio with an appropriate risk-return profile.
Regardless of the objectives established, our investment philosophy allows us to offer customized, high-value-added solutions that lead our clients to Optimum results.
Our Code of Ethics
Optimum Asset Management has a strict Code of Ethics, where client interests and rigorous monitoring are top priorities. By constantly and thoroughly applying the Code, we ensure that our activities always comply with applicable laws and regulations. Our Code is distinguished by its stringent monitoring cycle.
- Overseeing the opening of accounts
- Daily monitoring of operations
- Monitoring compliance with investment policies
- Monitoring compliance with current regulations
Given that compliance is an essential part of our clients’ trust, our Code of Ethics must be read and signed annually by all of our employees and managers. A copy of our Code of Ethics is available upon request for investors, market intermediaries and prospective clients.
