Investment Philosophy
  • The Fund’s investment strategy is based on an underlying belief that smaller companies’ share prices are often incorrectly priced.
  • The investment process focuses on a very active company visitation program to assess management quality and over time the investment team will visit most of the 800 companies in its universe.
  • In addition to meeting with management, the team’s qualitative-based approach also focuses on product/service quality, competitive advantage, growth prospects and financial position.
