Investment Manager to a Number of the World`s Greatest Athletes Launches Investment Advisory Practice Dedicated to the General Public

NEWTOWN, Conn.--(Business Wire)--
Horizons West Capital Partners, LLC, a newly created investment advisory firm
led by a market veteran with extensive experience managing money for billion
dollar global financial institutions, Hollywood celebrities, and many of the
world's greatest athletes, is now offering its portfolio management services to
the broad market of individual investors.

By leveraging the expertise and professional relationships developed over the
last twenty-five years serving such a high profile clientele, the Founder/CEO of
Horizons West Capital is bringing to the marketplace a results oriented style of
investment management that is typically available only to the most prominent of
investors.

"There must be a tremendous lack of trust in the system for so many investors to
remain on the sidelines in the face of the terrific stock market rally we have
seen", said Steven M. MacNamara, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Horizons
West Capital Partners. "I am also quite sure that in many cases that lack of
trust is completely warranted". By making available to the public the same
conservative portfolio management techniques that have been successfully
implemented over many years on behalf of world-class athletes and other leading
investors, Mr. MacNamara is hoping to restore at least a little bit of that lost
faith.

"Look, we won`t spend our time in the mindless pursuit of the indexes like so
many others across the industry. That approach has failed, not once but twice,
in the last ten years. What we plan on doing here is different."

About Horizons West Capital Partners

Horizons West Capital Partners, LLC is a boutique investment advisory firm
focused on serving investors in two primary ways. It is a leading proponent of
the "All Weather" style of multi-strategy portfolio management. This
conservative methodology of managing assets is driven by the flexible exposure
through time to a diverse assortment of asset classes in order to exploit market
inefficiencies as they arise, while at all times protecting against excess
volatility and loss.

The firm also provides comprehensive and highly cost-effective investment
consulting services to the growing community of independent Registered
Investment Advisors and Wealth Managers. These services include investor risk
tolerance profiling, asset allocation modeling, and third-party investment
manager research. In essence, Horizons West Capital will function as an
outsourced Chief Investment Officer to those cost conscious independent advisors
unable or unwilling to dedicate the resources required to develop such important
capabilities in-house.

The Founder/CEO of Horizons West Capital Partners has been deeply involved in
the investment management business since the mid-1980`s, and has successfully
managed client portfolios for two decades utilizing a variety of conservative
and income-oriented investment strategies.
