We are one of the world's leading multi-asset alternative investment firm with billions of dollars in assets under management that creates lasting impact for our investors, teams, businesses and the communities in which we live. Founded in 2006, we pioneered a consulting-based approach to the asset management investing, partnering closely with management teams to offer the insights that challenge conventional thinking, build great businesses and improve operations. Over time, we have organically expanded this approach across asset classes to build one of the strongest alternative asset platforms in the world.
Today, our teams strive to create value through private equity, public equity, fixed income, credit, venture capital and real estate investments across multiple sectors, industries, and geographies. We believe that our people and the shared values we've espoused since our founding remain the core of our competitive advantage. This has empowered us to deliver an enduring impact to a diverse group of investors including pensions, endowments, foundations and individuals.
At Lynton Rescue, we advance sustainable economic growth and financial opportunity. Drawing on over eight years of experience working with the world's leading businesses, entrepreneurs, and institutions, we mobilize our people, culture, technologies, and ideas to advance the success of our clients, broaden individual prosperity, and accelerate economic progress for all. Our purpose comes to life through our four core values: Client Service, Excellence, Integrity, and Partnership.
Our people are our greatest asset - we say it often and with good reason. It is only with the determination and dedication of our people that we can serve our clients, generate long-term value for our shareholders and contribute to the broader public. At every step of our employees careers we invest in them, and ensure their interests remain focused on the long term and closely aligned with those of our clients and shareholders.
We seek to manage risk in order to capitalize on opportunities and improve our performance. Disciplined risk estimation and management are deeply integrated components of the investment process across each one of our strategies.
We believe a well-constructed portfolio upfront will outperform in good markets and protect our client's capital in difficult markets. For this reason, Lynton Finance has spent over a quarter of a century establishing risk management as a core discipline. This approach begins with a dedicated governance group that oversees risk management. An emphasis on liquid markets, proprietary risk models and a diversified funding structure seeks to further strengthen our approach.
