About us

Our History

Founded in 1992 by Timothy Burt, our company was built on the premise that most investors do not have access to good long term investment alternatives. Since these early days, our team has been driven by a commitment to consistency, discipline, research and an unwavering desire to do what is best for our clients and their families. Our approach has been rewarded by a proven track record, and by the growing assets of a large number of private and institutional clients.

Our Approach

We like dividend paying companies

We invest in strong businesses. Strong businesses pay dividends and those dividends mean growth and reward to shareholders.
We value invest

We are a value manager and use a fundamental bottom-up approach to stock selection. Our portfolios are built with large-cap, high-quality stocks selling at below-average valuations.
We don't look like the index

A combination of in-house research and a deep understanding of the economy guide our investment decisions. Our portfolios are built up of a small number of selected high-quality stocks and we don't defer to the index.
We incorporate ESG factors into our investment process

A signatory of the UN PRI, we believe that evaluating ESG factors go hand in hand with preserving capital for clients.

The Cardinal Team

We are accessible and sincerely devoted to providing exceptional customer service and promoting success for the long term. It is important for us to provide every client with flexible, personalized service.
