Investment philosophy

North of South three major investment principles:

1

Value investing outperforms other styles over time

By buying equities whose income streams are priced below those of the market and of its peers we expect to receive more income over time.

2

Value needs to be seen in the context of domestic risk free rate

Equities need to be attractive relative to their domestic fixed income markets in order to perform over the long term.

3

Value needs to be assessed relative to the riskiness of the stock

Establishing a consistent methodology for the equity risk premium is essential in this process.
