Investment Philosophy
We believe in active management. We believe that markets are inefficient, prices overshoot, and that, through rigorous, fundamental research, we can outperform markets. We follow a disciplined and systematic process to build our investment ideas into portfolios, and believe our successful investment track record reflects both our flair and discipline.
Investec Asset Management has the depth of resources in South Africa to manage a wide spectrum of investment propositions. We have structured our investment team into smaller, specialist teams of key decision makers, who leverage off a robust and disciplined equity and fixed income research platform. The teams are focused entirely on high quality idea generation and execution, which is incorporated into efficient portfolios using the most modern valuation techniques, best practice fund construction and risk control technology.
