Eric Kottke, Manager

Mr. Kottke's experience includes: pension plans, banks, M&A, real property, complex/illiquid assets, various intellectual capital valuation, and financial instruments. 

Since 2000 his area of primary activity was within alternative investments. As a result of contributing to the upstart of a small-mid cap equity fund, Mr. Kottke created an independent alternative investment advisory firm. He performed numerous proprietary fund searches through this operation. His skill is evidenced such that he successfully avoided numerous failed investment operations some of which later became notorious. 

Now after several years of practice, he applies his skill to this operation in the arena of financial products and tactical investment decision making.
