We are a firm that invests in people as deeply as we invest in markets. Every person at Garda has the opportunity to succeed. Here, we focus on helping you build your career for long-term success. At Garda, we are Built to Last.

Garda Capital Partners is more than a workplace. It's a partnership built on trust, integrity, and shared ambition.

Our strength lies in how we work together, the enduring relationships we build, and the consistency of our results. We combine the agility of an entrepreneurial firm with the discipline of an established leader.

Because at Garda, we are Built to Last — as a firm, a team, and individuals.

Collaboration

Strength in the Collective

On day one, employees experience collaboration as the foundation of how we operate. At Garda, we succeed because we share ideas openly, listen generously, and build trust through transparency and respect.

Our teams work as one across geographies, disciplines, and experience levels. We are guided by the belief that together, we go further. We celebrate collective achievement and understand that our success endures only when we elevate one another.

Empowerment

Initiative with Accountability

Every employee has the opportunity to earn trust and shape outcomes. We value initiative, reward accountability and ensure every challenge becomes an opportunity to grow.

Here, leaders are approachable, employees feel empowered to collaborate across levels and departments, and ideas are welcomed.

Excellence

Driven by Continuous Learning

Our people embrace a shared drive to learn, improve, and achieve lasting impact. If mistakes happen, we learn from them and make ourselves and our approach stronger for the next opportunity.

It's about delivering results without compromising integrity, holding ourselves to high standards, and continuously seeking better ways to perform.

We pursue excellence because our colleagues, partners, and clients deserve nothing less.

Values

At Garda, we live our values each day. These are the guideposts for our interactions and how we do our work.

Be who you say you are, do what you say you will

We have a passion for investing and a 22-year track record of positive performance through many market cycles. We stay focused on our expertise: deploying relative value strategies primarily across fixed income markets.

Be transparent and honest

We communicate often, taking the time to explain how we see the markets, what we're doing in response, and why. We always strive to deliver insight and clarity for our investors.

Be rigorous

We work hard and don't cut corners. Our investment process is highly disciplined. Clearly defined objectives and risk thresholds are integrated across what we do.

Be fair

Our clients, employees, and counterparties are our partners – we will treat them fairly. We value long-term relationships above short-term gains.
