Disruption is ubiquitous. It transforms the way we live, displaces existing markets, and pioneers new creations we didn’t even know we needed.
Today, disruptive forces are manifesting themselves faster than ever due to technological advancements, creating a rich and fast-growing universe of transformational companies with growth potential that has yet to be recognised.
By spotting early the companies that drive, enable or adapt to change, you can capitalise on these opportunities to build a portfolio at the forefront of a fast-changing world.
Disruptive forces touch all aspects of our world, changing the way we consume, transact and live

All investments, domestic and foreign, involve risks including the risk of possible loss of principal. The market value of the portfolio may decline as a result of a number of factors, including adverse economic and market conditions, prospects of stocks in the portfolio, changing interest rates, and real or perceived adverse competitive industry conditions. Investing overseas involves special risks including among others, risks related to political or economic instability, foreign currency (such as exchange, valuation and fluctuation) risk, market entry or exit restrictions, illiquidity and taxation. These risks exist to a greater extent in emerging markets than in developed markets. Investments that focus on a single theme or sector are more susceptible to the risks within those market segments, and may exhibit greater price fluctuations which differ from those of strategies that are less specialized and/or more diversified.

The success of any quantitative ESG research model depends largely upon the effectiveness of the investment team’s quantitative model. A quantitative model, such as the risk and other models used by the investment team requires adherence to a systematic, disciplined process. The team’s ability to monitor and, if necessary, adjust its quantitative model could be adversely affected by various factors including incorrect or outdated market and other data inputs. Factors that affect a security’s value can change over time, and these changes may not be reflected in the quantitative model. In addition, factors used in quantitative analysis and the weight placed on those factors may not be predictive of a security’s value. No investment strategy, technique or model can guarantee future results or eliminate the risk of loss of principal.
The opinions stated include some forecasted views. We believe that we are basing our expectations and beliefs on reasonable assumptions within the bounds of what we currently know. However, there is no guarantee that any forecasts or opinions will be realized.
