Strategy Overview
Strategy Description
Superior and sustainable results are achieved by investing in a concentrated (yet diversified) portfolio of high quality companies and holding them for the very long run. As a result of unique competitive advantages, these companies are able to generate stable and strong return on invested capital (ROIC), provide ample long-term growth potential at incrementally higher ROIC, generate strong and predictable free cash flow, consistently compound shareholder wealth over the long term and preserve capital.
The strategy is also available with an All Country World Equity and a Currency-hedged approach.
