Risk Philosophy

Risk before return.

Risk management is an important part of our research framework. It should not begin only after an investment decision has been made — it should be incorporated from the earliest stages of research and capital allocation.

  • Market risk
  • Credit risk
  • Liquidity risk
  • Corporate financial risk
  • Industry risk
  • Macroeconomic risk
  • Capital structure risk

Risk before return.

Protect capital before pursuing growth.

Understand first, then allocate capital.
