Our equity portfolio managers are given the freedom to develop their own individual approach to investing, which is then documented and monitored by our independent product management team. The goal is to ensure that our approaches are managed in line with a deeply considered, proven philosophy that sets out exactly how the manager intends to identify opportunities and control risks.

Our integrated global investment platform fosters collaboration and allows our investment professionals to share ideas across geographies on a daily basis.

We invest in hundreds of stocks from leading markets and stock exchanges around the world. Analyze, discuss and trade along with over ten thousand users. We trade with powerful and sophisticated software. Stocks are an equity investment that represents part ownership in a corporation and entitles you to part of that corporation's earnings and assets.

For long-term investors, stocks are a good investment even during periods of market volatility — a stock market downturn like the one we've seen this year simply means that many stocks are on sale.
