Our Team

Full-Service Management

Since the firm's inception in 1974, GKV Capital Management has been singularly focused on portfolio management.

For nearly 50 years, through an ever-evolving market we’ve remained steadfast with our approach. Bears, bulls, bubbles and all, we’ve navigated through it, and as advisors we can tell you, while money may be able to buy a lot of things, it cannot buy that degree of experience.

But maybe more important than having someone on your side who can see the big picture is having someone who shows you the full picture. Trust and transparency is what you’ll find at the core of who we are as advisors.
