Identification of underappreciated earnings growth
- Strong valuation discipline aims to identify mispricing of long-term growth opportunities related to navigating the hype cycle
- Rational growth at a reasonable price (GARP), rather than simply value
ESG insights and pro-active engagement

What we believe
Our approach of navigating the technology hype cycle allows us to recognise unappreciated earnings growth, which in our experience is the single largest driver of technology stock returns.
Our investment approach is bottom-up with a thematic overlay. We identify future technology leaders and powerful secular growth themes while applying environmental, social and governance (ESG) insights as an integrated part of our valuation discipline.
We believe this can lead to strong consistent investment returns in this dynamic sector in a less volatile manner.
