Are you sure you want to venture beyond the familiar? When you click that link, you're stepping away from Hedgeye Risk Management's (HRM) familiar digital shores. What awaits you is a gateway to investment products overseen by Hedgeye Asset Management (HAM), a close affiliate of HRM. Think of it as a different department within the same company, but with its own distinct responsibilities and policies. This new destination is governed by HAM's Privacy Policy, and it's important to know that HAM, as a distinct legal entity, manages its assets independently. This means the investment strategies and fund performance you'll see there are the sole creation of HAM's portfolio managers, and they might not perfectly align with the research you've come to expect from HRM.
But here's where it gets a bit nuanced... HRM itself isn't able to vouch for the accuracy or completeness of the information you'll find on these external sites. They're not giving a green light to any specific investment product or advisory service. Any opinions or recommendations you encounter on these linked pages belong exclusively to their affiliate, HAM, and are not to be mistaken as HRM's own endorsements. And this is the part most people miss: HRM explicitly states that they DO NOT offer personalized investment advice or any kind of asset management services. To be crystal clear, this link is NOT an invitation to buy or sell any security or investment product, nor is it a request for you to engage their advisory services.
It's a crucial distinction to make, wouldn't you agree? When it comes to your investments, understanding who is responsible for what is paramount. What are your thoughts on the separation of research and asset management? Do you find it reassuring or a point of caution?
