How We Invest
As the sustainable investor for a changing world we aim to generate long-term sustainable returns for our clients, based on six core investment features.
Global Perspective
A global perspective is needed to make better investment decisions, in an increasingly interconnected world.
Sustainable
We are convinced that we make better decisions by integrating sustainability into our investment processes. We believe this will result in better outcomes for our clients and the planet.
Risk Management
The value created through our research and idea generation needs to be carefully preserved through appropriate risk utilisation.
Research Driven
Research is the foundation on which we build our markets’ views to support our convictions. We apply both a quantitative and fundamental approach to our research with a culture of curiosity, collaboration, and challenge.
Conviction Driven
In a changing world, our conviction based investment philosophy provides scope to capture both short and long-term opportunities for value creation. Our approach combines a thorough understanding of market dynamics and fundamentals (at security, sector, thematic levels), enabling high conviction positions and a dynamic allocation of capital across varied time horizons.

Rising Dividend
We have increased our dividend every year since 2017, putting us among the top of the Association of Investment Companies.
Investing Responsibly For Today And Tomorrow’s Generations
We believe responsible investing gives us rights and responsibilities, and we must make sure our capital is being invested in a way that doesn’t exploit society or the environment. For that reason, the analysis of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors throughout our investment process is important to us. Doing so ensures the companies we invest in take the challenges facing current and future generations seriously, and it reduces risk and drives improved returns for our investors.
