Patented, Proven Optimization

Our Expertise, Your Goals - Aligned

New Frontier has developed a unique, multi-patented form of portfolio construction and management. As an independent asset manager, we apply our research and technology building and optimizing portfolios using best-in-class ETFs – regardless of fund family. Each portfolio is designed to provide efficient exposure to evolving markets while aligning with investors' goals.
 
We aim to bring investors a smoother investment journey, more reliable outcomes, and a higher probability of success over the long term. 

How It Started

New Frontier’s began with co-founders Richard and Robert Michaud, who identified and continue to solve foundational problems in asset management. In 1998, they challenged conventional investment wisdom and theory, publishing "Efficient Asset Management."
 
The book exposed existing portfolio optimization limitations and proposed a groundbreaking solution for investing in an uncertain future. Richard and Robert’s research garnered attention from top academics in finance, including Harry Markowitz. The following year, they patented Michaud OptimizationTM and founded New Frontier, bringing a new efficient frontier to the industry.
