We seek to earn superior returns by investing in securities of financially strong companies in emerging markets.

We believe that the market does not always reflect the true value of a security and that stocks whose price-to-cash earnings ratios are low relative to their long-term growth rates can produce superior investment returns over time.

The investment decision-making process is a disciplined, research driven, bottom-up process, which leverages the network of GE resources. Our investment process begins by screening the universe of emerging markets companies with market capitalizations greater than $100 million. We conduct quantitative analysis focused on price/cash earnings ratios, cash earnings growth, and yield analysis. Detailed, fundamental company analysis, industry competitive analysis, and a macroenvironment review further narrow the list of buy candidates. Our analysts then seek a catalyst for change in each stock that will unlock the future potential of the company. The final portfolio construction is driven by our level of conviction in each stock based on thorough discussions between the portfolio managers and an overall risk assessment.
