Process Title

The Seaward equity investment process seeks to identify companies with long-term growth prospects that are reasonably priced. Investment portfolios are then built using the best of these ideas, with careful attention to diversification.

 

Step 1

Seaward searches a database of 14,000 global companies to find those with:

  • above average revenue, earnings and dividend growth
  • a strong balance sheet and high return on equity
Step 2

Seaward then analyzes this list for companies that have:

  • a strong product or service franchise
  • superior management
  • high barriers to entry
Step 3

Seaward identifies major secular trends in the global economy that may enable specific industries and companies to grow rapidly.

Step 4

Seaward builds a portfolio utilizing 25 to 50 stocks with an emphasis on diversification and low turnover. Seaward over-weights the sectors and companies identified in step three in order to benefit from the growth potential of these secular trends.
