What We Do
Waypoint Capital is a quantitative investment firm committed to building research-driven portfolios that emphasize long-term performance and prudent risk management. Guided by the principles of discipline, transparency, and continuous refinement, we blend advanced data science with deep financial insight to uncover durable market opportunities. Our process involves systematically collecting data, transforming it into actionable signals, and aggregating those signals into robust models that guide portfolio construction. We serve investors who value clarity, consistency, and a forward-thinking approach to wealth creation.
The Origin of Waypoint Capital
Waypoint Capital was founded on the realization that even experienced investors, including ourselves, aren’t immune to emotion and behavioral biases, especially during volatile markets. Those moments highlighted the benefits that a disciplined, systematic approach would provide. So we set out to build equity portfolios guided by checklists and rules-based frameworks, designed to reduce mistakes and stay focused on long-term wealth creation through clear, consistent strategies.
Bennett Nalley is the founder and principal of Waypoint Capital, where he directs investment strategy, portfolio oversight, and strategic planning for multiple entities. His work focuses on quantitative, factor-based approaches to asset allocation, with an emphasis on long-term capital efficiency, risk-adjusted performance, and tax-aware rebalancing.
In his current role, Bennett conducts in-depth portfolio reviews, develops strategic investment frameworks, and integrates public equities and real assets into cohesive, research-driven structures. He also evaluates and manages cross-entity financial strategies to support capital preservation and sustainable growth.
Bennett holds an M.S. in Finance from Villanova University and a B.S. in Financial Management from Clemson University. His background includes financial analysis, real estate development, and operational management, providing a broad foundation for his leadership at Waypoint Capital.
