Capital at risk
EAFE Plus All Cap
Our philosophy is based on three core beliefs: that superior profit growth leads to outperformance in the long run, that fundamental analysis enables exploitation of market inefficiencies and that share prices reflect fundamentals over the long term.
Active growth for 30 years
An international portfolio supported by firmwide research and that follows a consistent investment philosophy and process. We believe that stock markets have a recurring tendency to underappreciate the value of long-term compound growth.
International All Cap Q2 update
The International All Cap Team reflects on recent performance, portfolio changes and market developments.
Different from the market
We look to invest in businesses that exhibit some combination of sustained, above-average growth and strong competitive advantage, such as superior profit margins or returns on invested capital.
We aim to take advantage of this by investing with a minimum time horizon of five years in mind, a period that we think is long enough for share price moves to reflect the economic value of the underlying assets.
Our philosophy and approach aim to offer strong tailwinds to growth and attractive returns and is aligned management teams.
Enduring strategy
Embracing different types of growth results in an eclectic mix of businesses. We aim for a balance of growth, quality and resilience.
We also take great pride in drawing from firmwide research to bring the best international ideas to the portfolio.
The strategy’s 33-year track record has outlived personnel changes by following a consistent investment philosophy.
The result of our bottom-up stock picking approach is a portfolio that is tilted towards the lower end of the benchmark’s market cap range. We think this is a fertile hunting ground for focused, well-run growth companies.
We are long-term in our approach and focused on identifying the structural growth drivers that could deliver strong returns for our clients over the coming decades.
