INVESTMENT
PHILOSOPHY

Our investment philosophy is grounded in three tenets:

GREAT BUSINESSES

We are focused on owning only what we believe are the world’s best businesses.

RIGOROUS RESEARCH

We seek to understand our businesses better than our peers through independent, granular and continuous research.

DISCIPLINED INVESTING

We wait patiently for the market to present opportunities to deploy capital at attractive discounts to intrinsic values.

INVESTMENT
STRATEGIES

We manage both long-only and long/short equity portfolios that differ in terms of market cap focus, geographic exposure and concentration but share our core investment philosophy.

We have been investing on behalf of our clients in long-only equity portfolios since 1991, long/short equity portfolios since 1998, dedicated international equity portfolios since 2011, global equity portfolios since 2013 and private equity portfolios since 2015.
