36ONE is an active, value-based manager which aims to achieve out-performance by employing bottom-up fundamental analysis to select stocks. The firm’s primary geographic focus is on companies in South Africa, but they also consider attractive growth shares and opportunities in other asset classes and/or geographies. They conduct fundamental analysis, utilize proprietary modeling techniques and meet with company management, to identify securities which they believe are incorrectly priced. 36ONE Asset Management supplements the bottom-up approach with a macroeconomic overlay which they use to manage exposure to industries and asset classes. The firm invests through the 36ONE hedge funds and unit trusts across sectors and market-caps. Risk management is a core component of their investment philosophy and is integrated in all stages of the portfolio management process.
