Asset management refers to the management of investments on behalf of others. The process essentially has a dual mandate – appreciation of a client’s asset over time while mitigating risk.

Coming in hot is our guest, Karen Oeser. She has been doing multi-million dollar portfolio management for over 25 years. Prior to launching East Light Investments, she managed over $150 million in fixed income assets for Hart Capital Management, Inc. while also juggling the role of Chief Compliance Officer. As a serial entrepreneur, Karen has launched and successfully sold several communications businesses, including a boutique investor relations company, Ripple Effect Communications, which continues to thrive as a full-service public relations firm. She later headed Ashton Partners’ east coast practice, where she was responsible for developing new business and providing strategic counsel to investor relations clients.
