Our investment process consists of four main components.

Research – A large global network of analysts performs in-depth, fundamental research relating to thousands of companies, industry outlooks on a global basis, and country-specific economic, political, and regulatory environments.

Methods of Communication – Portfolio managers and analysts share information via regularly scheduled daily/weekly company-wide meetings, voicemail, e-mail, joint research trips, and internal investment publications and databases.

Decision making – Our multiple portfolio manager system encourages strong individual ideas to be acted upon while ensuring a diversity of ideas and continuity of management in client portfolios.

Portfolio risk control – The multiple portfolio manager system provides diversification of investment ideas and styles, while the Investment Committee, assisted by the Portfolio Control group, is responsible for monitoring the risk exposure of the entire portfolio.
