Founded in Montreal nearly 20 years ago, Allard, Allard & Associés is emerging as a strong up-and-coming investment management firm in Quebec. Its strong track record can be attributed to its rigorous and disciplined value-driven investment process and to its team-based entrepreneurial culture. The firm is wholly owned by its investment managers who, as owner operators, have a long term view that is well aligned with their clients’ objectives. The investment philosophy is to perform in-house fundamental research on profitable firms whose debt is small relative to tangible assets and acquire these firms at a reasonable price. Over time, this approach has provided superior returns while offering strong capital preservation in down markets.
