| Description of Business |
At the heart of our firm is our investment approach, something which incorporates the development of people as well as our philosophy and processes. We are active managers, as opposed to passive, and are prepared to back our judgement in the composition of portfolios and their management. For our holdings we seek well-managed businesses where we can see sustainable competitive advantages. At the moment, as long term investors with an affinity for growth, we believe that the possibilities open to us have seldom been greater. With much of our industry obsessed with short term market gyrations we can offer our clients three key and sustainable advantages - a stable firm with low turnover of personnel, a well-developed and successful investment approach, and the courage born of long-term thinking and experience to back our investment judgement.
