Core Investment Attributes
The firm traditionally follows a GARP (Growth at a Reasonable Price) approach. Key parameters for selecting stocks include:
- Quality First: Focuses on high-quality businesses with superior management rather than just chasing high growth.
- Earnings Visibility: Prefers companies with at least 15% earnings growth and a Return on Capital Employed (RoCE) > 25%.
- Valuation Discipline: Aims to buy "growth" businesses at "value" prices, avoiding overvalued speculative stocks.
- Long-term Horizon: Adopts a 3 to 5-year investment horizon to benefit from the power of compounding.
