An Overview of the Pendragon Advantage
Founded in 1996, Pendragon Capital is a privately owned, independent investment firm.
Our portfolio managers honed their skills at large firms, but their commitment to personal, professional service inspired them to build Pendragon as a boutique wealth-management firm.
At Pendragon, you’ll deal directly with your portfolio manager. The advice you receive from us is clear, thoughtful, and individualized to meet your specific needs and goals.
Together, Pendragon and its clients seek long-term investment solutions using internally managed portfolios as the foundation, and, depending on the client’s needs, external managers to complete the strategy. Pendragon represents a complete financial solution for clients like you from planning through implementation, and evaluation.
We seek to be as comprehensive as possible working with your tax and legal advisors to create a rich platform for wealth preservation and growth.
