Investors, which include U.S. and global banks, mutual funds, and family offices, have invested in SandPointe's All-Seasons Strategy and its associated private investment fund, the SandPointe All-Seasons Fund.
"We are excited to have earned the confidence of our investors, and look forward to continuing our investment success," said Dennis Hammond, CEO/CIO in a statement obtained by Opalesque.
