American Fund
The Findlay Park American Fund is an actively managed portfolio, comprised primarily of US equities. The Fund aims to increase the value of your investment over the long-term.
We aim to invest in a diversified portfolio of high quality, sustainable companies*. Our starting point when considering any company for investment is not ‘how much can we make if we get it right?’ but rather ‘how much could we lose if we are wrong?’
Our goal is to keep compounding at an attractive rate for investors by aiming to control risk in each investment.
* In this context, we primarily mean the financial and economic sustainability of companies. We also consider companies’ environmental and social sustainability. Please see here for further information.
Investment Philosophy
We have a clear Investment Philosophy that is aligned to our purpose and rigorously applied through all market conditions.
By applying our Investment Philosophy we aim to control the downside risk in each stock in order to produce a compelling risk-adjusted compound rate of return.
We assess each company against a checklist of twenty-nine questions which analyse key aspects of a business, including its financial and competitive position, management and valuation.
ESG analysis is integrated throughout our process, and several of our checklist questions consider ESG issues.
Responsible investment is integral to our purpose, our philosophy and our culture.
Our Approach
Responsible investment is integral to our purpose, our philosophy, and our culture.
ESG in Focus

Engagement
We believe that engagement can both help to secure compound returns, and benefit people and planet.
