Why the
Lighthouse?

weather-tested

Though nation-wide in scope, many members of the Clarus Capital team trace their personal and/or professional roots to the Boston area. Just east of our office, standing in the heart of historic Boston Harbor since before the American Revolution, Boston Light is a weather-tested, fully-functional monument to stability, endurance, reliability and risk management. First constructed in 1716 and later rebuilt in 1783, it is the oldest lighthouse location in the United States. As a testament to its historical significance, Boston Light is now the last remaining lighthouse still kept by US Coast Guard personnel. The light’s rich history includes a temporary occupation by British soldiers during the Revolution and countless episodes of human survival, bravery and endurance in the most challenging conditions.
