11. EDM Strategy Sicav Investment Philosophy
How do we manage to obtain such a low volatility?
• Following certain long-term Macro-trends:
Western live style globalization
Outsourcing is increasing
“Low Cost” trend
Population aging
Increasing emerging markets exposure
• Lack of sectors whose profits are not easily foreseen:
Banking & Insurance
Cyclical sectors
Regulated tariffs
Commodities
