Why invest in innovation

Technology is constantly evolving, usually one step at a time and sometimes with a huge leap. The steam engine revolutionised industry, the Internet has laid the foundations for the digital transformation, and the mobile phone has changed the way we communicate. Today, many innovations such as battery technology, biotechnology, cybersecurity, disposal, genetic research, artificial intelligence, solar energy and hydrogen technology are about to take some important steps in their development. Companies which have invested a lot of work and money in research and development will benefit from this. They will be ahead of the pack tomorrow, grow stronger than their peers and earn more.

Our investment philosophy

The funds look for companies with a solid business and sustainability strategy that operate successfully and are valued favourably. The focus is on companies whose products or services represent technological milestones. We are convinced that such companies will grow profitably at an above-average rate.

Investment process: How suitable equities are found

Stock selection based on the bottom-up approach first involves analysing companies and then the sectors, markets or regions. The return on invested capital, fundamental data and environmental and social effect are all taken into account. Investments are made in companies with a convincing business model, low debt levels, solid financial figures, a good management track record and a relatively high return on investment that promise above-average returns with below-average risk.
