Every position in the Kol Ami portfolio is backed by rigorous fundamental analysis. Our analysts produce institutional-quality equity research covering valuation, catalysts, and risk.

Fund Governance

⚖️

Decision-Making

The portfolio is managed by an Investment Committee of 12–15 members, all alumni of IGI. All decisions to open or close positions require a simple majority vote following a formal debate of the investment thesis.

🔄

Active Review Cycle

The committee meets bi-weekly to audit current holdings, review real-world market data, and adjust positions based on new macroeconomic developments.

🛡️

Advisory Oversight

The committee is advised by Sandrine Bernstein, a Wharton graduate and seasoned wealth manager. She provides expert guidance on position sizing and risk management, and maintains veto authority to ensure strict adherence to risk parameters.

📊

Operational Framework

The portfolio applies fundamental research to real-world data as a high-fidelity simulation. This shadow portfolio structure serves as a specialized incubator to validate the student-managed investment fund model, utilizing a diverse team of international students.
