In many ways, this is the linchpin. Beyond the most strict adherence to both the letter and spirit of our industry’s rules and regulations, our investment professionals abide by a rigorous set of practices that ensure our clients’ interests always remain paramount, that the foremost goal is generating client satisfaction, not added fees. It helps that, as an independent, we are fully removed from the galloping profit pressures of the typical financial conglomerate. But, above all, at Fairview Capital we recognize that our capital is indeed our reputation.

Our clients benefit from the services of an elite group of professionals who bring to the effort much more than extensive investment experience and top-tier training. These are investment experts who, by their association with Fairview Capital, have already demonstrated the independence and drive to eschew the formulaic and faddish in pursuit of consistent, long-term results.

At the same time, they are supported by a commitment to proprietary research virtually unheard of at smaller firms.

Insight at Fairview Capital is not generated by a mainframe in South Carolina, but by a dedicated Fairview Capital research team that puts every investment opportunity through a meticulous and comprehensive evaluation process.

With our relentless focus on professional reputation and unswerving commitment to personal and professional integrity, it should not be surprising that we don’t follow standard industry practice when it comes to fees.

Our policy — as sensible as it is rare — is that we do not charge for investment counsel until your money has actually been invested.

So if it takes the market a year to deliver a target price on a particular equity, that portion of a full-service client’s portfolio that has not yet been invested will not be assessed a fee.

We were created to be an elite group of investment professionals serving an elite group of investors. By definition and design, we are a provider of exceptionally personalized service.

At the same time, we are deeply committed to certain personal and professional values and recognize that our reputation in this business drives success for all concerned.

Finally, at every turn we endeavor to eliminate extraneous pressures, offering our investment professionals the rare opportunity to pursue their craft in an environment wholly focused on the client. How could we not be passionate about our work? And, most importantly, how could that not be of benefit to you?
