Lapides Asset Management

Lapides Asset Management was founded in June of 2005 by Steve Wilson, former Chief Investment Officer of the Capital Management Group of Reich & Tang, a New York City-based value investment manager. Steve has since been joined by a number of like-minded professionals who share his passion for Lapides' research-intensive investment process. We are committed to building a firm the same way we build our client portfolios - thoughtfully, over time, and from the bottom up.

We are value investors specializing in investing in the securities of smaller companies. By smaller we mean companies whose market capitalizations are defined as mid, small and micro. Our investable range is approximately $50 million to $10 billion in market capitalization at the time of initial purchase, which we then segment by product. Securities in the various funds may exceed or fall below these ranges as a result of appreciation or depreciation and will not necessarily be sold when outside the stated average market cap range. At times, there may be add on purchases while the companies are outside the market cap range, but no initial purchase will be made in a company that is outside the market cap range.
