The principals of Alegrìa Capital Management believe that we all share a responsibility to conduct ourselves in a way that does not damage the environment. This includes conserving natural resources, choosing products that are safe for the environment, and minimizing carbon emissions whenever possible. Our primary mission is to maximize investor returns, however the ACM Green Commitment means that when we have the opportunity to choose a similar or better quality green product or service over a non-green product or service available at the same price, we will always choose the green product or service.
