Bastiat Capital manages a concentrated, yet conservative, long-only portfolio of large-cap equities for institutions, family offices and high net worth individuals.
Albert Meyer, Founder and Chief Investment Officer, is a veteran investment manager and forensic accountant who received global attention for uncovering one of the largest Ponzi schemes in U.S. history, the Foundation for New Era Philanthropy.
Mr. Meyer published the research report on Tyco that ultimately led to the prosecution and imprisonment of Dennis Kozlowski. He also uncovered noteworthy accounting irregularities at Enron, Lucent and Coca-Cola. His work on Coca-Cola and eBay became the basis of several Harvard Business School case studies.
Mr. Meyer launched his career in corporate accounting with Deloitte & Touche, then dedicated 15 years to teaching accounting in academia. In 1996, he began applying his accounting expertise to investment management on a professional basis, first at Martin Capital Management and later with David Tice & Associates and with Clark Hunt (current CEO of the Kansas City Chiefs) and the Hunt family office in Dallas, Texas.
In 2002 Mr. Meyer established 2nd Opinion Research and, in 2006, formed Bastiat Capital, where he manages a large-cap equity portfolio that has consistently outperformed the S&P 500 Total Return benchmark since inception.
Mr. Meyer is a Chartered Accountant (the British Commonwealth equivalent of a CPA) and a Certified Public Accountant. He is a regular contributor to national financial media on investing and accounting topics.
In 2005, Mr. Meyer received the American Accounting Association's highest honor, the Accounting Exemplar Award (previously awarded to former SEC Commissioner Arthur Levitt) in recognition of his many contribution to the field of accounting.
Mr. Meyer and his wife Melanie reside in Plano, Texas near their three sons and their spouses, as well as six grandchildren.
