An Unconventional Approach to International Investing

A conversation with Founder & CIO Alejandro H. Garza

International markets can be difficult to navigate. From changing regulatory environments and fluctuating currencies to political and economic uncertainty and language barriers, the hurdles investors must clear to get closer to and comfortable with non-U.S. businesses are often detriments. 

Indexing and passive investments are options. But they’re not the best options for identifying opportunities in markets where information, transparency, and access can be limited. That’s where active management offers value. 

In this recorded interview, our founder, Alejandro Garza, explains AZTLAN’s active and unconventional approach to international small- and mid-cap investing.

Watch the recording to discover:

  • How AZTLAN was born from Alejandro's conviction that there is a better way to approach global and international investing 
  • The benefits of allocating to smaller stocks in a variety of geographies—including the U.S. 
  • The advantages of a proprietary investment approach that fuses the science of quantitative screening with the art of fundamental analysis and stock-picking 
  • How AZTLAN’s portfolios and process are inspired by stock pickers who are – or were formerly – artists, mathematicians, business leaders, polyglots, and seminarians
