Summary

This strategy has been on better footing since a subadvisor overhaul placed Silvant Capital Management’s Michael Sansoterra at the helm in July 2022. Since then, Michael and comanagers Brandi Allen and Sandeep Bhatia have done a commendable job of constructing a concentrated large-cap portfolio while remaining diligent about risk management.
