Our reputation is built on unquestionable ethics and transparency. Our team subscribes to the CFA Code of Ethics and supports good corporate governance.
Laurium Capital is a highly qualified team of driven, exceptional individuals who have an absolute focus on achieving superior risk adjusted returns for our clients. We are an owner-managed firm with equity ownership spread across the business. In addition, all staff have personal investments in the funds which ensures that our interests are closely aligned with those of our clients.
We strive for excellence in everything we do, which extends beyond the alpha generation that our investment team obsesses over daily. Our highly skilled operations team ensures the timely and efficient execution of all portfolio and business transactions, whilst our business development team are at the forefront of client service satisfaction.
All our personnel are motivated individuals that understand both the benefits of hard work and following a disciplined approach. At Laurium we buy into our process and philosophy of investing wholeheartedly. Our disciplined process guides every investment decision we make.
We do only one thing: focus on your investments - no distractions
With over 300 years' collective professional investment management expertise, the team at Laurium Capital combines on-the-ground research and extensive local market knowledge to seek investment opportunities. We believe that our skills in stock selection, combined with disciplined portfolio construction and risk management processes should deliver superior risk adjusted returns over time.
All of our funds are underpinned by a common investment philosophy.
We seek to identify companies whose share prices differ materially from our estimate of intrinsic value, based on through-the-cycle, normalised cash flows and earnings, and where we think that there is a catalyst for the company's share price to revert to our estimate of intrinsic value over the medium term. However, when using a valuation-driven stock pricing process, we acknowledge the risk of investing in so-called value traps (companies whose share prices trade at prices that differ materially from our estimate of intrinsic value for extended periods of time) and seek to mitigate the risk by focussing on catalysts, downside risk, quality of the company management team, and taking all of these factors into account when considering portfolio construction.
Identifying and taking advantage of economic cycles and market trends is an important contributor to the generation of superior long-term investment returns, and is complementary to bottom-up research. However, cycles and trends are often unpredictable and are subject to change. Therefore the risk of being wrong must be acknowledged and managed.
The market is right most of the time, but regular inefficiencies arise in the short term. Shorter term inefficiencies may present trading opportunities, irrespective of a company's intrinsic value. These opportunities often arise due to large flows of money, news flow and emotions, structural inefficiencies, corporate actions, and other special situations or events.
