We hire the best people we can find and give them the resources they need and an environment in which they can achieve their full potential. That includes a significant commitment to ongoing training and development opportunities, enabling associates to add breadth and depth to their contributions. Reflecting the important roles we expect them to play at Capital, all who work here are referred to as associates rather than employees.
On investing
Our approach to investing can be traced back to the principles of our founder, Jonathan Bell Lovelace:
Research-driven. We thoroughly research each security under consideration to determine its actual worth.
Long-term focus. We buy securities at reasonable prices relative to a company's prospects — and hold them for the long term.
Integrity. We are always governed by a total commitment to honesty and integrity.
On service
The quality of our service is an equally important part of our success. Our approach to serving our clients and mutual fund shareholders is simple, yet we recognize that it requires constant attention. We are committed to providing superior service. The majority of the individuals in our organization focus their attention on service to our investors and to the brokerage and financial adviser community, through which we market our mutual funds.
