Quality + Long-term + ESG
We aim to invest in a concentrated number of well-researched, high-quality sustainable growth businesses in the Emerging Market Small and Mid-Cap (SMID) space. We believe that EM SMID is one of the most exciting areas in the global investing universe given the structural growth potential in EM and there are a number of developing and innovative businesses that are less well-known, less-covered, and have a long runway for growth.
A bottom-up approach to identify high-quality companies that have attractive fundamentals, and that can drive long-term sustainable earnings growth. Each investment is expected to deliver double-digit USD annualized returns.
We believe a deep integration of ESG factors is an important element in our assessment of quality. We believe that our ESG approach allows us to control risk, as well as determine sustainability. Where we see material areas for improvement through ESG engagement we seek to partner with investee companies and advise them on best practice in order to enhance shareholder returns.
