Strategy Facts

The Strategy’s portfolio managers apply more than 100 years of combined investment experience to the bottom-up stock selection process.

New positions are added opportunistically when price underestimates growth potential.

A focus on sustainable growth franchises has resulted in a persistent bias toward the health care, energy and information technology sectors.
