Our Expertise

Since inception, Bivium has focused exclusively on providing manager of manager services in asset classes where we believe smaller, emerging managers have an advantage over larger money managers. Bivium’s clients are primarily corporate, city, county and state pension funds. The majority of our assets are in small cap mandates, an inefficient asset class where substantial value can be added through the use of managers with a smaller asset base. From our origins as a small cap specialist, we have expanded our research efforts and product offerings to include exposure across public markets asset classes. At the same time, we adhere to our focus on smaller managers who are newer to the institutional market and in areas where there is inefficiency.

Bivium’s investment team has extensive experience in conducting due diligence on investment managers and constructing diversified, risk-adjusted portfolios. Our investment team has, on average, more than a decade of experience in manager research across asset classes. We have placed more than $1 billion with external managers on behalf of our clients at Bivium and have placed more than $15 billion with external managers while at prior organizations. Our firm’s resources are heavily dedicated towards manager research and portfolio construction.
