Victori Capital conducts in-depth research and manages investment portfolios according to our Outstanding Company strategy. We make concentrated investments in the stock of public companies that meet high standards with respect to quality of management, financial performance, and durability of growth. By focusing on these Outstanding Companies, we aim to deliver to our investors the long-term wealth creation that results from the intersection of great management, high-quality businesses and secular growth opportunities.
Secular Growth is enduring growth that is unrelated to an economic or commodity cycle. We look for disruptors in industries with expanding reinvestment opportunities. We assess the quality of this growth by studying history while focusing on the long view.
High Quality Businesses deliver strong returns through cycles as they strengthen their moats. We assess this dimension by analyzing the financial history of a company and its competitors, and by understanding how the value proposition might change in the future.
Great Management have a track record of innovation, continuous improvement, alignment with shareholders, and candor. We assess this dimension through extensive studies of communication history, media records, and SEC filings.
