A long-term vision

Foundations of our investment philosophy

Our investment philosophy is grounded in patience and discipline aimed at growing our clients’ wealth over the long term. When making decisions, we consider factors like macroeconomic and monetary policy and our strategists’ forecasts. Through internal and external research and the support of our investment committee, we select high-quality securities that have solid fundamentals.

When building portfolios, we apply strategic and tactical asset allocation tailored to the specific needs of our clients.

Our well-balanced portfolios are diversified by asset class, industry and geographic location.
