Schroders’ sustainability quotient (SQ)
03/27/2019
The Global Sustainable Growth strategy seeks to invest in a small number of truly sustainable businesses where we have high conviction in the long-term outlook. We understand ‘sustainability’ to mean the durability of a company’s business model, or ‘what makes a great company stay great?’. Ultimately, we believe that only companies that are run (a) for the long-term, and (b) with regard to all stakeholders, will be able to maintain supernormal growth and returns. The reward for shareholders comes from the fact that the market is poor at long-term forecasts and analysis of non-financial factors. This means it often fails to differentiate between companies where growth and returns will mean-revert and those where they will persist. This creates an alpha opportunity, as these companies repeatedly surprise positively and ‘beat the fade’, delivering persistent outperformance and long-term compounding returns.
