Interesante ya el inicio:
At Seilern, a portfolio manager’s main role is to manage risk rather than to generate alpha. Alpha should largely come from the Seilern Universe, a pre-approved list of investments that have undergone rigorous internal research.
We also consider risk in a different way to our peers. Although many investors see volatility as a reliable measure of risk, it merely shows how a stock’s price has behaved in the past. It doesn’t tell us much about the company’s future performance.
Our portfolio managers aim to build the most balanced portfolios from a risk standpoint – and only from the companies that feature in the Seilern universe.
Se hace hincapié en el universo Seilern, que todo partícipe debería tener claro que limita el universo invertible. De igual modo que para no dejar duda de su vocación growth, sin por ello sobrepagar:
In many cases, a business whose growth is slowing will no longer be a suitable company for our funds or the Seilern universe. And in certain cases, a company’s valuation may become so stretched that the risk-reward ratio no longer makes sense.
Y como declaración de intenciones, al mismo tiempo que slógan o frase de marketing:
As quality growth investors, we create a portfolio of carefully researched stocks with the aim of holding them ad infinitum. This portfolio needs to be able to weather every kind of condition because, over the long term, the unexpected tends to happen quite often. Like the best football managers, our goal has never been to win one match. Instead, we’re building a team
to win the long-term championship.
Reiterar que mi mayor posición en fondos es Seilern World Growth.
