Our Company History
Atlantic Capital Advisors Management (“ACA Management”) is a capital manager specializing in residential mortgage and other real estate related investments. The management team at Atlantic Capital Advisors founded a privately held REIT in 1998, which remained its sole management duty until 2007 when they formed Hatteras Financial, which they took public in 2008 (NYSE: HTS). Atlantic Capital Advisors managed both REITs until the sale of Hatteras in 2016 and continue to manage the original privately held REIT.
We believe the model we execute appeals to the investor in search of investment stability and income. We attempt to provide a diversification tool for asset allocation strategies which generates a higher risk-adjusted rate of return than traditional fixed-income alternatives.
Our long history has allowed us to build strong relationships with non-bank mortgage originators, major commercial banks, leading investment banks, law firms and other asset managers.
Benefits Of ACA Management
Management has extensive experience in Capital Markets, Fixed Income Sales and Trading, Asset/Liability Management and Mortgage Banking. Our experience also comprises multiple housing cycles and interest rate environments.
Investors benefit from our experience managing a public company. Procedures and controls reflect the policies of a public company along with having an independent board of directors, preference to use nationally recognized accounting firms as auditors, and use of major commercial banks for functions such as securities custodian.
