More about the strategy

The strategy targets three key megatrends: Preserving Earth, Transforming Technologies and Changing Sociodemographics.

Our choice of megatrends reflects our belief in the significant economic value of addressing inefficiencies, inequalities, and imbalances in business, society, and the environment. This value is often underappreciated by broader markets.

Successfully harnessing their power requires keen foresight and expertise. Investment ideas are generated from a network of ambassadors who provide in-depth analysis and insights from their respective thematic domains.

These ideas inform an investment process characterized by rigorous bottom-up stock selection overlaid with a flexible, top-down theme allocation. The result is a portfolio of 60-80 high-conviction stocks best positioned to capture future growth.
