How we investOur ten golden rules

01
Rule 01

Eliminate, do not pick

Eliminate away the countries, industries and companies you certainly do not want to invest in.
02
Rule 02

Understand the company’s earnings model

The company’s key indicators reveal if it is better than its competitors.
03
Rule 03

Prefer growing industries

More than two-thirds of a company’s growth is explained by industry growth.
04
Rule 04

Predictability of profits

A large share of continuous services in total revenue always attracts our attention.
05
RULE 05

Pricing power

If the service or product provided by the company is vital to the customer, it will not be easily replaced.
06
RULE 06

High margins

We are interested in gross and operating margins. High margins are a sign of pricing power, differentiation and efficiency.
07
RULE 07

A strong balance sheet is a valuable asset

The balance sheet of a quality company is strong. Quality companies invest their profits in growing their own operations. They do not need loans.
08
RULE 08

Customer loyalty creates predictability

Customer loyalty is a sign of quality and the service is important to the customer.
09
RULE 09

Competent leadership

Often the management of quality companies grows from within the company.
10
RULE 10

The current price of a share does not always tell the whole truth

High-quality companies are not often found for sale.

INVESTMENTS01. Real Estate

We invest thematically in high-quality assets, focusing where we see outsized growth potential driven by global economic and demographic trends.

INVESTMENTS02. Mining

AUO aims to provide a diversified investment in mining and metal assets worldwide, actively managed with the objective of maximising total returns. 

INVESTMENTS03. Technology

AUO  calls for dynamic investment. In this new model, the funding process is continual and flexible. It enables the enterprise to shift capital among various technology bets. It encourages experimentation, failing fast, and redeploying capital during the fiscal year

It's not whether you're right or wrong, but how much money you make when you're right and how much you lose when you're wrong.
