Named after the legendary Paris-Roubaix bike race, over 160 miles including unforgiving sections of cobblestones, Roubaix Capital embodies the challenges and triumphs of investing. As an SEC-registered investment advisor based in Denver, CO, we manage investment funds that are focused on U.S. small cap equities.
In January 2010, Christopher Hillary launched Roubaix’s small cap focused fundamental long/short equity strategy to take advantage of structural inefficiencies that we believe create opportunities for alpha generation on both sides of the portfolio. Much like the Roubaix race, which forces participants to quickly adapt to cobblestone roads and an ever-changing landscape, we're committed to steering our investments with consistency, precision, and the expertise of a seasoned team.

Roubaix believes the most important drivers of equity value over time are the characteristics of a company's business model, its financial structure, and the quality of its management. We seek to be long companies that exhibit pricing power, generate their own demand, or establish a healthier market ecosystem between their clients and end customers. Similarly, we seek short opportunities in companies that face increasing competition or secular and/or cyclical headwinds.
Roubaix maintains a dynamic list of over 300 companies that we consider to be appealing long or short investment opportunities. By concentrating on select archetypes, we filter out large parts of the equity universe. This targeted approach enables us to make more deliberate investment decisions.
