Why Walter Scott?
Proven investment philosophy: A core belief at Walter Scott, and one that has remained constant since the firm was founded in 1983, is that share prices, over the long term, reflect the internal wealth created by their underlying companies. More specifically, as a company's intrinsic value changes through growing its profits, cash flows, dividends and equity, given enough time, this should be tracked by its share price. The Research team at Walter Scott embodies this philosophy and aims to identify companies in which long-term intrinsic value growth is most reasonably valued.
Original, fundamental research-driven approach: Consistent with the firm's investment philosophy, Walter Scott is engaged in fundamental research; identifying, analysing and investing in exceptional wealth-creating businesses. This calls for diligence, scrutiny and hard work. It also calls for an entrepreneurial spirit that directs the Research team to search for innovative marketleading companies across the world. It is a search that is not constrained by industry definitions or geographical borders and limited only by the consistency of the investment criteria applied.
Collective decision-making process: Walter Scott's collegiate ethos and collective decision-making process are integral to the firm's success. The investment experience of all members of the Research team, the varying perspectives and backgrounds, is brought to bear on every investment decision. It brings together each individual's skill and judgment, ensures a disciplined approach to managing investment risk and effectively leverages the firm's stable and talented Research team. Company fundamentals drive stock selection, with portfolios built on a bottom-up, stock-by-stock basis, unconstrained by index composition.
Differentiated: At Walter Scott, such is the belief in long-term investing, that companies are purchased with the expectation of indefinite ownership. However, this requires discipline and a commitment to rigorous company analysis. Few investment managers have both the incentive and structure to invest in a select number of high conviction ideas over long periods. With a constant hand of investment stretching back thirty-five years, Walter Scott believes its long-term, original research-driven, stock selection based approach is as appropriate now as ever.

Generating superior returns through investment in world-leading businesses
In line with Walter Scott's classical investment philosophy, the Global Leaders Strategy invests in a portfolio of world-leading companies capable of achieving high rates of sustainable wealth generation.
Walter Scott firmly believes the world's best companies are pioneers. They create new sources of demand, innovate relentlessly and have compelling long-term visions. They also command pricing power, generate high incremental returns on capital, maintain robust balance sheets and are operated by management teams in a consistent and sustainable fashion. These characteristics define a `Global Leader' and Walter Scott is convinced that patiently investing in a highly select and focused portfolio of these companies, with due respect to valuation, should yield excellent investment returns in time.
Strategy approach
In recognition that investment success tends to come from capitalising on a handful of big ideas, the Global Leaders Strategy is a high-conviction portfolio of world-leading companies selected by Walter Scott's Research team. The unconstrained investment approach aims to identify between 25 and 30 companies operating in global niches and where excellence resides. Stock selection is driven by company fundamentals with the aim of capturing the power of compound growth through partnering with great businesses and minimising portfolio turnover over time. Few investment managers have the discipline to do this but Walter Scott believes this investment approach gives it the best chance of achieving its objective: long-term capital appreciation.
Concentrated global equity strategy Active approach: 25-30 stocks held at similar weights Fundamental, unconstrained stock selection process Invest in companies with sustainable earnings power
Superior business models

Sustainable competitive advantage
Genuine long term perspective (i.e. low turnover) Focused on protecting and growing clients' capital
Long-term structural growth
Past performance is not a guide to future performance. The value of investments can fall. Investors may not get back the amount invested. Currency Risk: The Strategy invests in international markets which means it is exposed to changes in currency rates which could affect the value of the portfolio. Emerging Markets Risk: Emerging Markets have additional risks due to less-developed market practices.
