The firm traditionally follows a GARP (Growth at a Reasonable Price) approach. Key parameters for selecting stocks include:

  • Earnings Visibility: Prefers companies with at least 15% earnings growth and a Return on Capital Employed (RoCE) > 25%.
  • Valuation Discipline: Aims to buy “growth” businesses at “value” prices, avoiding overvalued speculative stocks.
  • Long-term Horizon: Adopts a 3 to 5-year investment horizon to benefit from the power of compounding.
