The AXA Global Investors investment process is based on high quality research backed by sound judgement. It is designed to temper and avoid the emotional basis for investment decision-making that is so prevalent among inexperienced investors.

The investment process is anchored by a number of core beliefs about investment markets. These include the importance of time, diversification and fundamental value.

Time Financial market returns are unpredictable in the short term but more reliable over longer time periods. As a result, we recognise that good investments need time. Discipline must drive investment decisions, not emotion.

Diversification Return outcomes associated with any single investment are highly uncertain but are relatively predictable across a larger number of securities. As a result, we favour investments in broadly diversified portfolios to ensure that the long term wealth creation potential of investment markets can be captured in a reliable manner.

Fundamental value Market prices can often stray significantly from fundamental value. As a result, we design portfolios that can be orientated toward investments where pricing best reflects fundamental value.

AXA Global Investors aims to be in the top quartile of fund managers in the New Zealand industry. The team’s exceptional track record in the management of diversified investment portfolios is readily visible in the regularly published wholesale performance surveys.

The AXA Global Investors team of investment and research professionals maintains international links with leading investment managers, including renowned international asset managers such as Capital International, Alliance Bernstein and LSV Asset Management as well as local managers Brook Asset Management and AllianceBernstein (NZ) Limited.
