About

K2 Advisors was founded in 1994. The firm’s investment philosophy is centered on a steadfast commitment to the prudent allocation of client capital – with an emphasis on risk management programs – while seeking to generate steady asymmetric returns in various economic environments. K2 uses strategies that exhibit lower volatility and correlation to the broad capital markets to achieve investment objectives. On November 1, 2012, K2 agreed with a deal to sell a majority stake in its business to Franklin Templeton Investments. The proceeds from the deal will let K2 buy back a stake currently owned by TA Associates.
