Firm profile

Overview

Highland Capital Management, LLC is a privately held advisory firm that tilts heavily toward public equities, with a clear preference for exchange-traded positions. The firm manages both individual and institutional mandates and runs discretionary strategies across separate accounts and pooled vehicles. Its fee schedule includes percentage-of-AUM billing and performance-based fees, which aligns with active management of concentrated equity positions and pooled investment structures. Highland does not position itself as an ESG-focused allocator. Investment activity centers on long equity exposure supplemented by ETFs and third-party alternative allocations. The firm’s advisory scope covers traditional portfolio management for individuals and businesses as well as management for pooled investment vehicles, indicating it operates strategies that can accept outside capital on performance-linked terms.
