Benchmark Asset Management (BAM) is a socially responsible investment manager. They provide access to direct investments in community redevelopment, green real estate, private alternative energy opportunities, microlending and other socially positive investments. They manage their core holdings using three major asset classes including large-cap domestic equities, large-cap international equities and US fixed-income. BAM's community direct investing strategy is largely fixed-income in nature and includes Community Notes and Development Bank CD's, community development loan funds, direct loans to redevelopment projects and microfinance institutions, as well as a small portion of equity investment. Their Private Fixed-Income investment strategy focuses on debt of private corporations and partnerships. The goal of this portfolio is capital preservation followed closely by yield with targeted above market return. The firm's High Impact Portfolio invests in companies from emerging green industries, such as alternative energy, clean technology, and organic food, as well as companies from traditional industries. These companies are based around the world and vary in size, though the focus is on smaller companies. BAM applies negative screens to all of our portfolios. They exclude companies involved in the production of tobacco or alcohol, as well as companies that directly participate in the weapons, gambling, or oil industries. Their screens also exclude companies that practice genetic modification or animal testing and companies with poor track records in handling environmental, safety and labor concerns. The firm also employs positive screens to seek out the most advanced social performers, inspiring companies to strive for recognition.
