Macquarie’s ValueInvest team has a track record that goes back more than 20 years in managing Global and Japanese listed equities according to its unique, disciplined, and value-oriented investment process based on fundamental bottom up stock picking.

Global Value Equity Strategy

The Global Value Equity strategy is designed with the aim to produce attractive risk-adjusted long-term returns by investing in understandable businesses with mispriced earnings power. The portfolios are primarily invested in global large cap equities listed in developed countries. The portfolios consist exclusively of companies which have been positively identified in the investment process and are managed free of benchmark constraints. The investment strategy excludes derivatives, currency hedging, and leverage. Typically, cash positions are kept below two percent.


Japan Value Equity Strategy

The Japan Value Equity strategy is designed with the aim to produce attractive risk-adjusted long-term returns by investing in understandable businesses with mispriced earnings power. The portfolios are primarily invested in Japanese large- and mid-cap equities listed in Japan. The portfolios consist exclusively of companies which have been positively identified in the investment process and are managed free of benchmark constraints. The investment strategy excludes derivatives, currency hedging, and leverage. Typically, cash positions are kept below two percent.

MIME S.A. ValueInvest invests only in developed markets and offers two products: Global Value Equities and Japan Value Equities.

At MIME S.A. ValueInvest, we approach investing with patience and discipline. Our investment philosophy rests on our core conviction that long-term preservation and accumulation of wealth can best be achieved through a combination of attractive valuation and thorough assessment of the quality of the businesses. The hallmarks of quality include profitability, earnings stability, low debt, and efficient use of assets. High-quality businesses with sustainable competitive advantages are believed to increase shareholder wealth throughout business cycles.

The aim is to produce attractive risk-adjusted long-term returns investing in understandable businesses with mispriced earnings power. Great importance is placed on assessing risks and in-depth research is used to gain detailed insight into the companies invested in.

Focused on long-term goals, we understand that short-term price fluctuations do not always reflect a company's value, which is why our investment strategy is based on the conviction that markets are inefficient in the short term. Volatility is seen as an opportunity to capitalize on mispricing through our structured investment process. In some cases, value investing requires a contrarian position - we recognize that going against prevailing trends is sometimes necessary to achieve our long-term investment objectives.
