Sean Wright of Carden Capital Discusses Systematic Investing

In this episode of Strategic Investor Radio, host Charley Wright interviews Sean Wright – no relation – of Carden Capital. Sean is the founder and a Managing Partner of Carden, which is known for its unique investment strategies applied for institutions, mutual funds, private investors, and advisors. 

Sean earned an MBA from Wharton and began his investment-industry career as an investment banker. He eventually “caught the entrepreneurial bug” and founded Carden. Soon thereafter, Gaven Duemke – a German who studied at Oxford and traded derivatives in London for many years – joined Sean as a fellow Managing Partner of the firm. 

Carden is focused on systematic strategies. “Everything we do has some sort of algorithm,” says Sean. “By using models, we can take emotion out of investment decisions and thereby create better returns.” Sean says his firm aims to “achieve superior risk-adjusted returns over a cycle so clients can have a better experience.”
