We seek to earn superior returns by investing in securities of financially strong, non-U.S. large cap companies worldwide.

We believe that stocks are not fairly valued at all times and that certain stocks whose price to cash earnings ratios are low relative to their long term growth rates will produce superior investment returns.

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 non-U.S. developed and emerging markets companies with market capitalizations greater than $2 billion. We conduct quantitative analysis focused on Price/Cash Earnings Ratios, Cash Earnings Growth, and Yield. Detailed, fundamental company analysis, industry competitive analysis, and a macro-environment review further narrows 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 among the portfolio managers and an overall risk assessment.
