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.
|
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. |
