Investment philosophy
We follow what we call the ‘PSG Asset Management Way’, which is steeped in being the best possible custodian of clients assets. We recognise our role as stewards of client capital.
To ensure that we exercise this role responsibly, we:
● Always think long-term. We seek out quality companies with the strong leadership that are trading at discounts to their intrinsic worth: the opportunities the market may be missing. Usually, the best opportunities present themselves in conditions of fear and uncertainty. While it may take time to realise mispriced value — and while it may even come at the cost of short-term performance — we know that the patient investor is rewarded.
● Act with prudence. This is a cornerstone of our investment philosophy and integral to our process maximising potential upside and limiting potential downside by ensuring a sufficient margin of safety in any investment we make. Without it, we are quite willing to forego an opportunity and will hold cash in our funds until we are comfortable that it can be suitably deployed.
● Are obsessive about research. We always do our own homework to understand all the risks associated with an investment.
In essence we like to always buy securities in our funds that have a sufficient margin of safety and a favourable asymmetry (upside return versus downside risk of loss). This pay off range should translate into little downside and sufficient upside. We believe that we will invest in any opportunity (equity or fixed income) provided that there is a sufficient margin of safety to ensure that we are not likely to incur permanent capital loss on that investment.
