O’Shaughnessy Asset Management is a quantitative money management firm that builds rules-based equity and fixed-income portfolios for individual investors, institutional clients, and the high-net-worth clients of other financial advisors. Founded in 2007 and now a wholly owned subsidiary of Franklin Resources, the firm uses a disciplined, systematic approach to stock selection based on historical research and computer models, removing emotion from the investment process. The firm offers a wide range of strategies—including growth, value, dividend-focused, sector-specific, and international portfolios—as well as customizable options and tax-managed strategies through its Canvas platform. O’Shaughnessy Asset Management generally delivers its services either by partnering with an investor's primary financial advisor, through dual-contract platforms, or via mutual funds and institutional accounts. The firm does not provide standalone financial planning or consulting services.
