  • Achieving competitive returns in excess of the corresponding benchmark (Alpha) consistently over the medium to long term.

Approach:

  • Fundamental Research and Valuation: Investment decisions are based on fundamental analysis conducted through a comprehensive study of the companies to determine their intrinsic values based on their forecasted cash flows as well as using other valuation techniques. Forecasts are driven by a hybrid approach that incorporates elements of both top down and bottom up analysis.
  • Top Down Analysis starts with expectations about macroeconomic variables, down to the sectors, then the individual companies.
  • Bottom Up Analysis focus on analyzing the companies individually while paying less attention to economic indicators.
  • Active Management: Actively managing holdings based on the belief that market inefficiencies create alphas which can be capitalized on, with the objective of producing better returns than those of passively managed assets.
  • Disciplined Investment Strategy: Following a strict and unemotional buy and sell disciplined plan.
