Knowledge Leaders Capital is a US-Registered Investment Advisor based in Denver, Colorado. The firm identified the Knowledge Effect – the tendency of highly innovative companies to generate excess returns in the stock market — and created the first investment methodology that seeks to capture those excess returns. The Knowledge Leaders investment products seek to transform these excess returns into portfolio alpha for investors. Knowledge Leaders Capital is creator, designer and manager of the Knowledge Leaders Strategy, investment products and separate accounts. Learn more about the academic foundations of the strategy here: Knowledge Effect

The Knowledge Leaders Strategy seeks to transform the Knowledge Effect into portfolio alpha. We identify Knowledge Leaders, or highly innovative companies, by measuring a company’s investment in its future growth. Knowledge Leaders possess deep reservoirs of intangible capital as a result of their history of investing in knowledge-intensive activities like R&D, brand development and employee education. Developed by founder Steven Vannelli and based on decades of academic research, our proprietary model adjusts a company’s financial history to capitalize these investments and reveal the companies with the greatest knowledge intensity. The companies that pass our quantitative screen are identified as Knowledge Leaders. We look for the best opportunities among Knowledge Leaders for investment by our actively managed funds.
