Brant Faulkner, Principal Brant Faulkner is founder and Principal of FIS. He is responsible for all dimensions of the firm, including research, investment strategy, portfolio management, and administration. He personally provides investment management to individuals, corporations, and trusts. Brant is a problem-solver, not a product-peddler. “I really value getting to know our clients and their unique situations. The most rewarding part of my job is helping our clients achieve the goals they’ve envisioned.” Prior to starting FIS, Brant spent twelve years as a successful professional mechanical engineer at a major international manufacturing firm. As Chief Engineer, he and his engineering staff conducted research and development, and designed state-of-the-art equipment for the nuclear and petrochemical industries. According to Brant, “The 1980s saw a great movement of engineers and physicists into the financial and investment fields. They were applying math and physics in revolutionary ways to capture investment opportunities and control risk. This was a period of dramatic strides in portfolio management and investment strategy. I decided to become part of this movement by founding FIS. That decision was immediately followed with thousands of research and development hours covering modern portfolio theory, econometric modeling, investment style analysis, and other state-of-the art subjects. Then, in 1989, we opened our doors to our first clients. Now, nearly two decades later, FIS continues to bring a wealth of experience and solid, sophisticated investment techniques to dozens of satisfied clients."
