How we invest
The strategy seeks to outperform the global equity market. We aim to achieve this by investing in around 50 positions representing the team’s highest convictions, utilising Pictet’s market leading thematic equity resource. Our strategy is active, secular growth driven, focused and unconstrained.
Our investment philosophy
We believe that the equity market tends to underprice the persistence of secular growth. We seek to exploit this inefficiency by selecting stocks with value drivers (sales growth and margins) linked to megatrends, where our research leads us to believe that growth will not fade.
