Philosphy

• Focused – we target superior, risk-adjusted returns by seeking to keep the balance of risk and reward in our favour as much as possible.
• Disciplined approach to managing money – a thorough understanding of industry dynamics and a rigorous analytical framework enable us to have conviction and to weight our bets accordingly.
• High regard for the market – the market has infinite wisdom, it is divine, our God. Any idea, however good, must wait to be confirmed by the market.
• Pragmatism – not idealism. Conviction is overruled if the market doesn't show confirmation.
• Independence of thought – we think for ourselves, from first principles; indices do not shape our investment approach.
• Timing is critical – whilst we think for ourselves, we always act mindful of the market's perception, acceptance and confirmation of our ideas.
• Style accommodates mistakes – a diversity of holdings means we don't get wedded to our holdings; we are dispassionate about cutting losers.
• Risk management – a strong alliance of a trading disciplines, analytical rigour, strong back office and P&L analysis is central to our risk management framework
