Our approach to global equities

Perpetual offers a broad array of offshore investment strategies through our wholly owned subsidiary J O Hambro, Dallas-based fund manager Barrow Hanley, our responsible investing business Regnan and Trillium – an impact driven ESG focused firm.

Our global equities managers use active, fundamental, bottom-up stock-selection processes with differences in portfolio construction and investment style.

Our fund managers have complete investment authority over their funds. This leads to a diversity of views and approaches across our investment professionals.

 J O Hambro Capital Management

J O Hambro (JOHCM) is a 100%-owned, boutique investment manager with offices in London, Singapore, New York and Boston.

JOHCM specialises in the active management of equities across the globe.  For Pendal in Australia, J O Hambro manages:

 
Similar to Pendal, JOHCM’s success is founded on experienced fund managers with proven investment pedigrees.

For example, Chris Lees and Nudgem Richyal, co-managers of Pendal Global Select Fund, have spent more than 17 years building one of Pendal’s most successful investment strategies.

JOHCM’s fund managers are attracted by its entrepreneurial approach, investment autonomy and central support. This allows focus on investing without the distractions that can arise at a larger company.  

This intellectual latitude and the absence of bureaucratic practices associated with many larger fund management houses has led to extremely low turnover among its investment professionals.

Each fund’s investment management process is tailored to its individual benchmark and goals.

Value can be added through a combination of country allocation as well as individual stock selection.
