Case studies

Excellence

Intellectual honesty

We pursue a rigorous and objective analysis of investment opportunities. Thorough, open, honest and if necessary controversial discussions help us weighing the merits and issues of opportunities to determine an adequate balance of risk and return.

Empowerment and learning

Continuous learning is embedded in our DNA. We recognize talent and performance. We empower people to develop their skills, experience and judgement and to reach their full potential.

Result orientation

We take ownership for delivering high quality results on time. We embrace opportunities and rather think about how we can make something work instead of why it would not work.

Integrity

Fiduciary responsibility

Each of us acts as if we were investing our own money.

Trust

We do everything to continuously earn trust as our reputation is at the heart of our success. We say what we mean and we do what we say.

Rewarding performance

We assess and reward each individual’s performance fairly and consistently.

Spirit

Teamwork

We enjoy working together for a common goal, share information across the firm and support each other. We lead by example.

Can-do attitude

We encourage entrepreneurship, enthusiasm, determination, conviction and pro-activity.

Accountability

We are accountable for our actions. If an issue emerges we bring it forward immediately and work on it with a solution-oriented mindset.

Work-life balance

We believe that balance in life is important. We strive for as much efficiency, freedom and flexibility as possible for everyone to enjoy other aspects of life.
