Investment philosophy
Their clear price/intrinsic value investment philosophy, the core of their business, means that they pay great attention to investment fundamentals and expected cash flows when assessing investments. UBS uses a disciplined, repeatable process to systematically apply their philosophy.
Investment process
UBS focuses their investment research on identifying discrepancies between a security's fundamental or intrinsic value and its observed market price – both across and within global equity markets. UBS takes advantage of these differences using a disciplined fundamental approach.
Their research teams evaluate companies within their regional markets around the world and assign relative price/intrinsic value rankings based on the present value of each company's expected future cash flows. The UBS equity strategy team employs a wide network of resources to carefully develop portfolios within global capital markets. They develop currency strategies separately and co-ordinate the plans with country allocations.
