CIP believes that investing in companies with sustainable competitive advantages, durable business models, sound balance sheets, capable and sincere management, and that are trading at valuations that each team deems reasonable can, over time, provide attractive returns with less risk than the overall market. In all of their strategies they actively attempt to minimize business and valuation risk through our well-defined and consistent investment processes. Their investment processes are focused on absolute returns and avoiding large losses, which we believe is critical to wealth creation. Their strategies include small cap equity, mid cap equity, emerging markets equity and emerging markets small cap equity. For CIP's small and mid cap equity, they follow a three-step process: (1) screen all potential companies through unique sector factors; (2) analysis of company fundamentals; (3) valuation analysis. For their emerging markets and emerging markets small cap equity, they also have a process they follow: (1) screen using filters including minimum market cap and liquidity; (2) apply their sector factors - a set of qualitative judgments that target the business models CIP find most attractive; (3) fundamental analysis of company attributes; (4) valuation analysis.

Hamlin Capital Management manages clients assets based on the individual needs of each client. The firm identifies client-specific investment objectives and/or restrictions, mutually agreed upon asset allocation between equities, debt securities, and cash or cash equivalents, and the types of investments to be held. Clients may impose restrictions on their account based on specific securities, security type, bond term, or industry type, among others.Hamlin's approach to asset management emphasizes current income. High-yield equities and high-yield municipal and taxable bonds constitute a majority of a client's portfolio. The high-yield municipal bond strategy is also available with both a short-term bond mandate, as well as a long-term bond mandate. The balance is generally invested in government instruments, money market funds, and cash or cash instruments. Hamlin's investment supervisory services also include transactions in certificates of participation. The firm can utilize long-term purchases and trading to implement their investment strategies.Hamlin focuses on stocks with dividend yields at approximately one and a half times or higher than that of the S&P 500 index yield. Within this high income universe, they search for companies with manageable debt, ample free cash flow and attractive returns on equity. While their strong balance sheet and dividend discipline generates mostly large company holdings, the firm invests across all market capitalizations. Hamlin is particularly interested in high dividend-yielding stocks with strong balance sheets that they believe are under-followed by other managers and Wall Street analysts. The municipal and taxable bonds and other debt-related securities in which Hamlin invests clients' assets are usually non-rated, high-yield securities.
