Frequently asked questions
Who makes investment decisions at Harpswell Capital Advisors?
John P. Moore, CFA, serves as Chief Investment Officer and Strategist, leading asset allocation and manager selection. He is supported by Vice President Claude R. Perrier, who specializes in manager due diligence and integrated investment strategies (per the firm website).
Does Harpswell only serve endowments, or does it work with family offices?
Harpswell's primary client base includes foundations, endowments, hospitals, museums, and faith-based institutions. It also serves families and family offices (per the firm's 'Who We Serve' page). The firm caps its client roster to maintain focused service.
What is Harpswell's investment approach?
The firm follows an endowment-style approach, allocating across specialized managers in venture capital, private equity, hedge funds, and public markets. It emphasizes diversification and uses a mix of active and passive funds to maximize risk-adjusted returns (per the firm website).
How does Harpswell differ from a typical RIA or asset manager?
Harpswell structures itself like a college endowment office or family office, operating as an outsourced CIO (OCIO). Unlike large RIAs or investment banks, it limits client numbers and integrates social-impact values into its investment framework (per the firm website).
Does Harpswell publicly disclose AUM or performance?
No. The firm does not publish AUM or performance figures on its website. Its total client assets under advisement remain undisclosed (Altss research).
Does Harpswell also run a direct investment fund or is it purely advisory?
Harpswell operates as an advisory firm, not a direct fund manager. It uses the OCIO model, hiring and monitoring third-party fund managers across asset classes. No direct investment funds or proprietary vehicles are indicated on the firm's website.
Where is the underlying wealth that Harpswell manages derived from?
The firm does not disclose the specific sources of wealth for the families and family offices it serves. Its client base is limited to a selective roster, but underlying wealth origins are not publicly stated (Altss research).
