What's In a Name?
Our name is inspired by Arete, the ancient Greek concept of excellence and moral virtue and the Greek goddess of excellence. In this challenging world, we felt those were values close to our heart and certainly are targets that we hold central to every client mandate. We strive for excellence at all times, and to advise clients on what is the right path for both their business performance and their ongoing reputation.
