It is their belief that a diversified portfolio of growth companies, as well as high quality bonds when appropriate, will provide above average returns over the long term. They seek industry leaders with superior management teams, solid financials and unique competitive advantages. Their diversified growth equity investment strategy employs a disciplined, growth-oriented approach utilizing bottom-up fundamental analysis. Portfolios are comprised of high quality, mid- to large-cap companies with consistent, above-average earnings growth rates and reasonable valuations. TWC seeks companies that are well-managed, financially sound industry leaders with proven track records. They believe that a diversified portfolio of traditional, accelerating and emerging growth companies will provide above-average returns over a full market cycle. TWC's fixed-income strategy involves actively managing portfolios to produce conservative risk-adjusted returns. Their focus is to purchase high quality securities with an emphasis on intermediate maturities. All changes to a portfolio are made on a gradual basis and annual portfolio turnover is low. Separate approaches are developed for taxable and tax-exempt investors. The firm's balanced growth strategy involves a customized blend of their diversified growth equity strategy with their total return fixed-income strategy. These customized portfolios are designed to benefit from market advances while providing protection during market declines and corrections.

Internally, Highmount actively manages US large-cap core equities, global large-cap equities, as well as US and non-dollar fixed-income portfolios. In addition, the firm may recommend and allocate assets to top-tier third party advisors (TPA) across a broad spectrum of asset classes, including, but not limited to, US and global micro, small-, mid- and large-cap stocks, hedge funds, and private equity, and in certain cases they have the discretion to hire and fire TPAs and/or reallocate assets amongst TPAs on a discretionary basis.
