Ranger Investment Management Awarded U.S. Micro-Cap Growth Equity Mandate From Spanish Wealth Manager Orienta Capital
DALLAS, March 20, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Ranger Investment Management, L.P. (Ranger Investments), an employee-owned boutique investment manager specializing in small- and micro-cap U.S. growth strategies, has been selected by Orienta Capital, a Spanish wealth advisory firm, to manage a micro-cap growth portfolio within its new Acimut North American Managers FI Fund.
Ranger Investments is one of four U.S. asset managers awarded mandates from Orienta Capital, whose team made the hiring decision after researching and visiting more than 200 investment boutiques specializing in U.S. equities. Ranger Investments' micro-cap growth strategy was launched on Aug. 1, 2014. The strategy's composite has outperformed its benchmark, the Russell Microcap Growth Index, since inception, and over the one-, three-, and five-year annualized periods through Dec. 31, 2022, net of fees.
"We launched the Orienta Capital Fund to give Spanish investors access to quality U.S. companies through portfolios managed by specialized boutique firms like Ranger Investments that have exhibited organizational depth and talent and excellent investment track records," said Pablo Valdes, partner at Orienta Capital.
Orienta Capital manages more than €2.1 billion in assets for institutions and individuals in Spain.
"Orienta's due diligence speaks to its thorough vetting process, and we are honored that the team selected us to manage the micro-cap portfolio," said Conrad Doenges, chief investment officer, partner, and portfolio manager at Ranger Investments.
This represents Ranger Investments' second European mandate; the firm also manages a U.S. small cap growth portfolio for a Scandinavian sovereign wealth fund.
Ranger Investments serves a global client base through separate accounts, sub-advised mandates, a private fund vehicle and two mutual funds—Ranger Small Cap Fund (RFISX) and Ranger Micro Cap Fund (RFIMX). Ranger Investments formally integrates analysis of environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors into its investment process.
