Capital at risk
Long Term Global Growth
Long Term Global Growth is an unconstrained equity strategy focused on exceptional companies. We invest over the long term in listed firms with the scope to grow to many multiples of their current size over the next decade.
We seek out transformational growth
We manage a concentrated portfolio of innovative growth companies. We embrace the asymmetry of equity markets by staying optimistic about the future to deliver transformational returns to our clients.
Long Term Global Growth: our philosophy
Investment manager Mark Urquhart introduces Long Term Global Growth, reflecting on the exciting opportunities ahead.
A selective strategy
We take a bottom-up approach to stock selection. Portfolio construction is purely stock-driven, so no reference is made to benchmark indices in our investment process. We are genuinely active, not passive. Portfolio holding sizes are based purely on the magnitude of the potential upside and the associated level of conviction.
This investment approach is consistent with outperforming a typical global equity benchmark by about 3 per cent per annum, net of fees, over the long term.
A concentrated, resilient portfolio
At its core, LTGG’s task is future-proofing. Investing with an eye on the next 10 years instead of the next quarter necessitates adaptability, diligent capital allocation and resilience from our holdings.
This is a high bar for inclusion, resulting in a portfolio of 30-40 stocks, and because we embrace asymmetry, position sizes are often skewed – winners can reach 10 per cent of the portfolio.
We believe that the rewards to the champions of change can far outweigh the losses of incumbents: the best feature of equities is the unlimited upside.
