Thematic First
Investing
We believe that the traditional asset allocation model, which targets risk and return organized by geography or asset class, is no longer optimal. Rather, we target specific macro themes that cuts across geographies and asset classes, and identify long-term compounding alpha supported by irreversible trends.
We architect our strategies with innovative and incentive-aligned investment structures that "close the value loop" within a theme. This compounds value within our portfolio and builds long-term sustainable and defensible businesses.

Our EDGES
Integrated Platform Synergies
The Recharge platform includes multiple investment teams with varying sourcing networks and expertise. Taken in aggregate, we have an unique ability to combine interdisciplinary knowledge sets and communities to execute investments in a concentrated manner with global scale.
Industry Partnerships
Beyond investment capabilities, strategic value-adds often come in the form of manufacturing, distribution, & technical bottleneck solutions. For each strategy, we partner with one or more industry leading operating businesses and/or academic institutions to enable our holistic value-chain approach.
Cross Asset-Class Execution
We invest across asset classes within a particular theme and emphasize our expertise in sector specialization. With methodical research and deep conviction, alpha can be generated in both early and late stages and, even better, be maximized when capturing value in both simultaneously.

After the population becomes accustomed to digital administration and utilization of a sector, additional services and products are created to meet demands beyond the basics.
