Strive Asset Management

Strive Asset Management was launched in early 2022, by Vivek Ramaswamy and his high school friend Anson Frericks. The firm raised $20M from outside investors, including Peter Thiel, Bill Ackman, and Ohio Senator J.D. Vance. Strive Asset Managements mission is to restore the voices of everyday citizens in the American economy and rejects making investment decisions based on Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance ESG criteria. Instead, the anti-ESG firm focuses on excellence over politics. As of early 2023, Strive Asset Management had eight exchange-traded funds EFTs and also provided proxy advisory services. In September 2023, Strive exceeded $1B in assets under management AUM within the one-year mark of the launch of its first fund. Heres the presentation that Strive presented in a keynote around that time at the energy investment conference, EnercomDenver.
