Our International Equity team is comprised of members located in Hong Kong and Europe. We believe this regional insight is critical for an understanding of cultural and economic nuances across Asia and Europe. The result is high conviction in implementing our investment philosophy: investing in well-established businesses that generate returns above their cost of capital.
The team employs a disciplined and repeatable process to identify high-conviction ideas. Potential investments are evaluated through three key lenses: operational quality, competitive advantage, and material issue management. A dedicated portfolio engineering function enables the team to assess a portfolio’s risk profile relative to the market while adhering to our philosophy of investing in excellent companies for the long term.
As fundamental investors, we focus on the environmental social and governance (ESG) factors that are most material to each investee company. Our long-term ownership mindset ensures we remain attuned to the risks and opportunities associated with these factors.
