Vaughan Nelson Investment Management LP
 Vaughan Nelson Investment Management LP Investment ManagersFinance Vaughan Nelson’s equity strategy seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation by investing in companies at valuations that they believe are materially below their long-term intrinsic value. The firm employs long-time horizon to exploit shorter-term volatility and poor shorter-term price discovery. They primarily utilize a fundamental, bottom-up investment process. For their fixed income strategy, Vaughan Nelson aims to maximize total return while preserving capital. They believe active, risk-controlled management, founded on research-driven analyses, can uncover relative values that, over the long term, produce returns with less risk. | Analyst-Equity | 01/10/2024 |
