1607 Capital Partners

What 1607 Capital Partners does

1607 Capital Partners, LLC is an SEC-registered investment adviser founded in 2007 and headquartered in Richmond, Virginia, with a UK regional office in London opened in 2018. The firm specializes exclusively in closed-end fund (CEF) and investment trust investing across global markets, serving institutional clients including family offices, pensions, foundations, endowments, and healthcare organizations. The firm's roots trace to the late 1970s through founder Fred Tattersall and the predecessor Tattersall Advisory Group CEF practice, and the current entity was formed when the CEF specialists left to establish 1607 alongside Fred and Kirk Tattersall.

The firm operates six discrete investment strategies covering international equity (EAFE, ACWI ex USA), global equity, US domestic equity, taxable fixed income, and tax-advantaged fixed income, all executed through a bottom-up, value-oriented process. The underlying investment engine is a proprietary research system developed and refined over more than 30 years that blends qualitative assessment of fund managers and portfolio construction with quantitative analysis of discount volatility, trading patterns, and risk parameters, with coverage spanning US, UK, Canadian, and Australian listed funds. The firm holds itself to capacity discipline, explicitly limiting AUM per strategy to protect return profiles.

Revenue is generated through investment advisory fees on managed assets, with a disclosed AUM of approximately $2.9 billion and a client base skewed toward long-tenured relationships (over 50% of AUM is from clients with 10+ year relationships). Go-to-market is direct institutional sales with no third-party distribution; the firm does not publicly disclose pricing. Ownership is independent and private, with Rosemont Investment Group brought on in 2019 as an external financial partner to facilitate equity circulation while preserving the firm's independence.
