Global securities
 

BankInvest's experience of global securities dates back to the early stages of our history with the launch of a global debt fund in 1982 and a global equities fund in 1984. The current global equities fund was launched in 1989 and the results of the investment team have been first-class ever since. The fund has outperformed the MSCI All Countries World index in 15 out of 18 years, including the last nine consecutive years. 

Complying with both the area of equities and bonds is that the portfolio is spread across a large range of securities in order to reduce risks. We take an active investment approach based on thorough analysis of all fundamental conditions. We follow the global economical and political scene closely and consult our expert board consisting of industry specialist as part of the investment process.

Another important part of the analysis is to visit existing and potential portfolio companies to get a more thorough understanding of the company in question. Moreover, we use external information such as industry sources, notifications, annual reports as well as reports from market-leading analysts, local investors and stock brokers. However, the foundation of the investment decision is always the analysis carried out by the team itself.

It is within the investment area of global equities that BankInvest's commitment to long term investments and bottom-up stock-picking is most distinctive. The investment strategy has been consistent since the creation of the global equity team. The core of the investment strategy is identifying strong investment cases through fundamental analyses. The analyses focus on value creation and growth potential within the sector, the company's strategic positioning and development, profitability, cash flow generation and risk.
