Sieve Capital LLC

Sieve Capital is a state-registered investment adviser that intends to provide discretionary portfolio management primarily for pooled and institutional mandates and for high-net-worth investors. The firm offers discrete investment strategies and will execute trading and custodial instructions on behalf of managed assets under written agreements.

The adviser combines systematic quantitative models with fundamental analysis and implements active, short-term trading strategies that can include derivatives, short sales, margin and alternative vehicles, which may result in higher turnover than buy-and-hold approaches. Accounts are monitored and rebalanced on an ongoing basis, and the firm conducts periodic reviews and delivers client reporting as part of its active management process.

Noteworthy features include that Sieve Capital is a single-advisor, newly formed manager with no operating track record or assets under management at the time of the filing, and it intends to offer performance-based fee arrangements available only to qualified clients. The firm requires use of a designated institutional custodian and obtains institutional research and technology services from that relationship, and its founder/principal cites prior trading and institutional analyst experience as the basis for the firm’s combined systematic and fundamental approach.
