Investment Strategies

First Light Investment Advisors offers two equity strategies and one dedicated crypto strategy. Our two equity portfolios differ in terms of their overall risk/return profile and are the basis around which individual portfolios are constructed. All of our investor portfolios are managed as separate accounts (SMAs). This allows us to customize each and every portfolio and gives our investors total control and transparency over their investments.


First Light US Equity

Our US Equity Strategy seeks to outperform the S&P by combining both growth and value companies across a variety of sectors.

This strategy represents the core portfolio structure for our more conservative investors, or investors with a lower tolerance for volatility.

Our stock selection process is based on analyzing corporate cashflows to determine intrinsic value. We focus on companies with a competitive advantage, strong market positions, and pricing power. Qualities that insulate a business from the volatility of business cycles.

First Light High Growth

Our High Growth Strategy invests almost exclusively in companies experiencing above average rates of growth in revenue and operating income.

This strategy includes a high percentage of technology companies and generally carries a higher level of industry / sector concentration.

Our investment process seeks to identify category winners in disruptive technologies that will shape the future (cloud, cybersecurity, software, blockchain, gaming, VR & AR, robotics, AI, Fintech etc.) This strategy is associated with a higher long term return potential, but with more significant volatility.

First Light Crypto

Our Crypto Strategy offers both qualified and non-qualified clients a unique way to invest in the transformational potential of blockchain technology.

This is achieved through direct investments in a wide array of projects spanning the entire crypto ecosystem (DeFi, store of value, applications, NFTs, Metaverse, layer 2, Web 3.0, Exchanges etc.)

Structured as Separately Managed Accounts, you will own your digital assets directly and enjoy full control and transparency. First Light will manage the assets, seeking to identify category winners in this quickly developing and transformative space. Your individual strategy will be tailored to your risk profile, based on qualified or non-qualified status.
