WELCOME TO ALLUVIUM
Our beliefs and values are not an “ideal fit” with traditional investment management. We view risk differently, we are not constrained by institutional pressures, we are concentrated, not obliged to be fully invested and we “eat our own cooking”. We offer investors that share our philosophy the opportunity to participate with us.
UNCONSTRAINED
We are not burdened by constraints commonly facing institutional asset managers. We have a broad, global investment universe, the ability to take meaningful positions in small, under-researched businesses, and the conviction to run a concentrated portfolio that bears no relation to any index.
OPPORTUNISTIC
Our view is that behavioural biases, and the structure and incentives inherent within investment markets often lead to prices differing significantly from underlying value. Our investment process has been designed to identify these pockets of inefficiencies, and when appropriate, to take advantage of them.
DISCIPLINED
Our processes are based on the merits of value investing and our belief that many behavioural biases are detrimental to investment returns. We merge behavioural finance concepts with fundamental business analysis and value investing principles to build portfolios of quality businesses.
“While managing money successfully is not easy for anyone, many institutional investors compound that difficulty with a tendency toward conformity, inertia, and excessive diversification that results from group decision making.” – Seth Klarman
