Private equity investing in 2016: Panacea or 'Hail Mary' Richard Silva
Private equity has become the panacea of choice for institutional investors to offset low public equity and fixed income returns, because of recent relative outperformance, illiquidity and long timeframes. It’s become another way for institutional investors to kick the can down the road. As a result, pension funds and endowments are relying more heavily on private equity allocations than ever before to make up for lost ground in other asset classes.

Managing distressed private equity and credit investmentsSteven Rosenblum
Many family offices, pensions, endowments and other investors that have historically allocated capital to private equity and credit funds (“Investors”) are increasingly investing in transactions directly. To achieve similar returns, Investors must replicate the capabilities of institutional asset managers in sourcing opportunities, structuring transactions and investment oversight. When unexpected problems occur post-investment, Investors often lack the resources and internal expertise to optimally manage the position, especially in distressed situations. These include risk management practices to help prevent investments from becoming distressed, activist expertise to manage distressed situations and strategies to recover investments after they have become impaired. This article discusses best practices in each of these areas that help Investors maximize the value of problematic investments.

Webinar | Perspectives on the Proposed DOL "Fiduciary Rule"NICSA
On April 20, 2015 the DOL published its re-proposed regulation on the definition of “Fiduciary” under section 3(21) of ERISA. The proposal included not only the change to the “Fiduciary” definition, but also two new prohibited transaction exemptions (“PTE”), as well as a number of amendments to existing PTEs. Since publication the DOL has received an avalanche of comment letters on the proposal, has held four days of hearings on the proposal and has accepted additional comment letters following those hearings. The proposal, if implemented in its current form will be a true game changer for the Retirement and RIA industries. As we now wait for the DOL to sift through the mountain of comment letters and hearing transcripts this session allows us an opportunity to pause and reflect on the current proposal and to provide unique perspectives from mutual fund, broker dealer, legal and retirement record keeper stake holders on how the proposal will impact the retirement industry.

About us
Boardwalk Capital Management is an independent Registered Investment Advisory firm based in Atlanta, Georgia. The
firm was founded in 2009 by B. Scott Sadler CFA, a 25+ year veteran of the investment industry and former international
mutual fund manager.
Boardwalk is a Certified B Corporation, meaning that we incorporate a “triple bottom line” (people, planet, profit) into
everything we do.
Our mission is to manage portfolios for investors who want to connect their assets with their values and their
personal brand – without sacrificing financial returns.
Experienced wealth management, with social impact
Boardwalk Capital Management brings together
traditional disciplines of investment management and
wealth planning with a social impact implementation.
Our principals have decades of experience in private
banking, real estate, private equity, investment
banking, hedge funds and mutual funds management.
We bring that perspective, and many market cycles, to
each client relationship. We also bring unique expertise
in social impact and sustainable investing, enabling us
to tailor each client’ investments to their specific
values.
As a Registered Investment Advisor, Boardwalk Capital
proudly accepts its role as a fiduciary in the careful
management of your wealth. We are also governed by
our own Code of Ethics, and those of the CFA Institute,
charging us to act with integrity and transparency,
always placing client interests first.
Investment Strategy
Each client has a unique set of needs and objectives. So, we work diligently to understand these fully for each engagement.
Using both quantitative and qualitative analyses, we create for each client a custom-tailored investment program that is
designed to achieve their financial objectives with the lowest possible volatility. This strategic portfolio is the “core”
allocation that we then tailor to meet the client’s social aims. In this implementation phase, we add both tactical and
satellite investments to exploit short-term market opportunities and trends.
Management costs and taxes greatly impact client returns over time, so our investment process emphasizes the superior
structure of low-cost ETFs and index vehicles to implement a highly-diversified global portfolio strategy.
For larger relationships, Boardwalk-managed equity portfolios permit a greater degree of customization. All portfolios are
low turnover and are managed in a tax-sensitive manner. We favor companies who are sustainability leaders versus their
peers, believing strongly that this predicts future prosperity. Each holding must also meet strict financial strength criteria in
order to provide a greater margin of safety in economic downturns. Portfolios are constructed to mirror the sector and
country exposures of the underlying index, ensuring that the performance will be consistent with broader market returns.

green space, health care, environment initiatives.
Microfinance – Small loans to micro-entrepreneurs, typically in

Sustainability Leaders Equity Strategy
Investing in stocks that have superior financial and sustainability characteristics may offer investors above average total
returns and a reduction of overall portfolio risk.
We begin by identifying companies with the following criteria:
Large cap: $10bn+ market cap)
Sustainability leaders: Top 50% of CSRHub database vs. industry peers
Financial strength -- C or higher by Morningstar
Foreign shares – Listed on US exchange
Trading Volume – Minimum $500,000/day
With these rankings and any client-directed industry exclusions, we construct 50 and 100-stock (equal weighted)
portfolios that are sector and country neutral versus the underlying benchmark domestic or global equity benchmark.
The resulting portfolios are comprised of fundamentally strong, sustainability leading companies across a wide range of
sectors, industries and countries, delivering a better footprint and competitive performance.
