The Scharf Quality Value Strategy invests in high quality, enduring franchises priced at substantial discounts to fair value. The team seeks to identify companies with low valuations combined with consistent and sustainable earnings, cash flow and/or book value. The goal is to provide capital appreciation over the course of an entire market cycle while losing notably less than relevant benchmarks in falling markets.

The Scharf Multi-Asset Strategy seeks to combine the appreciation potential of equities with the capital preservation and income generation qualities of fixed income and alternative investments. In the equity allocation the portfolio team maintains a strict focus on valuation, margin of safety and sustainable earnings growth, but maintains investment flexibility (not confined to style boxes) towards market capitalization and domicile. On the non-equity allocation, the portfolio team emphasizes credit quality and capital preservation. We seek to deliver a compelling risk-adjusted absolute return.
