Adapt and prosper

Invest in the trends that will shape the world of tomorrow.

 

Today’s world is changing at full speed. Dynamic trends such as digitization or e-commerce, threats from global warming and increased pollution, scarcity of resources and social imbalances cause new industries to emerge and grow, while others suffer. At the same time, interest rates remain at record lows compared to previously normal levels. This poses some unique challenges for investors, but it also offers them exciting investment opportunities.

How can investors take advantage of it and make an impact?

Thematic investment

The goal of a thematic investment strategy is to identify strong transformation trends, future market leaders in those areas, and companies best prepared to take advantage of structural changes.

 

Thematic investing has had the backing of investors in recent years. This increase in demand could continue to accelerate in 2021. According to a study by Preferred, more than half of the professional investors surveyed believe that the pandemic has reinforced the benefits of the thematic approach, and 49% plan to increase their exposure to the thematic investments.

Impact investing

With an impact investing strategy, investors focus on companies that aspire to solve social and environmental problems, and that have a measurable positive impact in these areas. In this way, they seek a double benefit for their portfolios: an attractive return and promoting positive change for the people who inhabit our planet.

 

Anticipating and taking advantage of these changes and detecting who will be the future structural winners is the main objective of our impact investing strategies.

Our goal is to offer portfolios based on pragmatic investment choices.

The results reflect the balance between real-world growth opportunities and the risks of meeting a customer’s needs. Preferred owns three boutiques that are governed by a wide variety of equity strategies. All of our portfolios are based on consistent investment philosophies, combined with in-depth research, a disciplined process, and many years of experience.

 

Your goals can best be achieved with a manager who shares your responsibilities. Our equity funds are actively managed on the basis of high conviction investment philosophies. We manage two main investment styles: bottom-up investing in stocks and quantitative. Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) aspects are an integral part of our bottom-up investing approach, where sustainable earnings growth drives results.

Our investment strategies offer a selection of on-trend regional and industry foci, from unfettered global and emerging markets to clean technologies.

 

Fundamentals

Our teams maintain an unwavering focus on bottom-up fundamentals research. A consistent feature of our boutiques is the philosophy that long-term results are the fruit of sustainable profit growth. Investing in the stocks of the largest global companies requires thorough research and discipline in order to distinguish and listen appropriately amidst the noise of the markets to invest in long-term structural demand opportunities.

 

Quantitative

The investment philosophy of our company, consisting of temporalizing investments due to their factorial behavior (momentum, quality, value, volatility), is based on the systematic reactions of the markets to confidence in profits and their valuation. Based on a deep academic foundation, the process actively manages factor-weighted portfolios throughout the business cycle.

Our ETIM OTC thematic and impact equity offering reflects global trends and challenges such as climate change, resource scarcity and urbanization. Aside from being active, high-conviction investors, we are also impact investors. We measure the impact of our investment decisions, such as whether our portfolios have a significant impact in terms of potentially avoided emissions.

 

Our team of analysts and strategists have the training you need to advise you on the best decision making and manage the best prices available in the market for you.
