Ascent Investment Partners is based in St. Louis and was formed to meet the unique needs of fixed income investors. Because safety and stability are the primary reasons investors include a fixed income allocation in their portfolios, we carefully balance risk and after-tax return in every investment decision. Our approach is slow and steady, research-driven and disciplined.
Since we are singularly focused on the fixed income markets, we can uncover opportunities to add value while also determining when a trade is cost-efficient. We never sacrifice credit quality for incremental yield and always seek a competitive total return.
We offer both taxable and tax-exempt fixed-income investment strategies with flexibility to meet individual clients’ time horizons and tax needs. The primary objective of all strategies is to achieve a competitive total return, within the framework of a conservative risk tolerance.
Strategies Offered: Municipal Fixed Income, Intermediate Taxable Fixed Income, Core Taxable Fixed Income
