Investment Approach
We add value through Fundamental Research, Quantitative Research and Portfolio Construction. These are the three pillars that define our stock selection and our approach to asset management. They are the key to clear investment objectives and to how we adapt our investment management styles.
Fundamental research
Our internal teams of analysts are responsible for our fundamental research. The teams analyse globally and filter out the best, most promising companies in each sector, regardless of their region. Through its own teams of analysts Pioneer Investments performs more than 90% of the research required in portfolio management.
Quantitative research
Quantitative research supplies the key data that assists portfolio supervision. As a result, our fund managers can assess the risk profiles of their portfolios every day. Each of our investment decisions are supported by analysis and simulation models. The potential effects on the portfolio of any purchase are modelled in advance.
Portfolio construction
Quantitative and fundamental research forms the basis of our portfolio management’s decision-making process. We use modern risk management to control all investment transactions and rule out portfolio risks from the outset. Our compliance and quantitative research departments, automated models and the investment team work closely together in this context.
