Summary

Ave Maria Growth's religious principles define its investment strategy. That's fine for some, but for many it doesn't offer the portfolio one might expect. Its team and resources are better established and warrant a People Pillar upgrade to Average from Below Average, but the limitations of its approach drop its Process rating to Below Average from Average.
