Investment philosophies

- Investing by definition can only be based on fundamentals

- Life is easier by holding onto a few high quality companies; Rotational plays are possible but may require more effort without necessarily higher returns

- Hallmark of high quality companies - strong business model, structural competitive advantages, capable management and reasonable balance sheet

- Look for companies that operate in industries and/or countries that have a long runway for growth. In Asian context, rising middle class has been and will remain a powerful growth engine

- Frontier markets are not necessarily as risky as people think. Be prudently adventurous

- Do not overpay. Paying a reasonable price for a wonderful company is normally okay

- Dividend does not matter as long as the capital allocation is sensible
