SMA overview
A total return approach to emerging markets
Emerging markets equities are often volatile and susceptible to external shocks, necessitating effective risk management through top-down decision-making and effective security selection.

The Emerging Markets Equity Income SMA integrates both disciplines in a total return approach, crafting a resilient portfolio designed to endure a variety of market outcomes.

Key differentiators

  • Focus on shareholder yield (cash dividends, buybacks, and spin-offs) has historically led to strong risk-adjusted returns
  • With decades of industry experience on average, the team possesses extensive cultural understanding and regional stock market experience
  • Combination of bottom-up stock selection with top-down country, sector, and industry allocation enables the team to identify the best investment opportunities
  • The team prioritizes identifying companies with robust business models, improving growth prospects, sustainable cash flow, strong financial profiles, solid corporate governance, and management that supports minority shareholders
