Disciplined Alpha LLC

Disciplined Alpha LLC, established in 2013 by Kevin Shea, offers discretionary investment advisory services to private pooled investment vehicles and separately managed accounts. The firm manages two strategies: a Regime Based U.S. Long Short Diversified Strategy and a Regime Based Multi-Asset Class Strategy. The investment philosophy focuses on maximizing risk-adjusted returns using a macroeconomic regime model. Disciplined Alpha charges management fees of 1% per annum for assets under $150 million, increasing to 1.5% once exceeding this threshold. Performance fees of 20% per annum are calculated on net gains/losses. The firm does not participate in wrap fee programs and does not tailor services to individual client needs. Clients include high net worth individuals, investment companies, and institutional investors, with a minimum initial investment of $250,000 for Private Funds. Disciplined Alpha exercises investment discretion over all managed portfolios and does not take physical custody of client assets. The firm's proxy voting policy prioritizes clients' best interests, with Glass Lewis assisting in proxy voting when required. Disciplined Alpha's Code of Ethics ensures compliance with regulations and ethical standards. The firm's brokerage practices focus on obtaining best execution and may utilize soft dollars for research. No disciplinary events involving the firm or its management have occurred.
