Ethos Alpha

About Us

Culture, made investable

Vision

Culture is widely acknowledged as a driver of long-term performance, yet it remains poorly defined, weakly measured, and rarely treated as an investment variable.

Ethos Alpha exists to change this.

Our ambition is to turn culture into a measurable, investable source of alpha. By making cultural quality visible and comparable, we aim to activate a virtuous flywheel: investors demand stronger cultures, management responds with deliberate improvements, organizations become healthier and more adaptive, and financial performance follows.

The result is durable returns grounded in human systems that work, and a form of capitalism that rewards coherence, trust, and long-term value creation. Better performance, and a better world.
