aIL is an active manager that makes their investment decisions using first-hand research. They conduct proprietary research to identify investment opportunities with attractive risk-reward characteristics. The firm combines multiple non-correlated investment decisions with risk monitoring and management. Their strategies include equities, fixed income, private markets, alternative investments and real estate. aIL utilizes a bottom-up, fundamental stock-picking approach, where sector, regional and country allocations are a residual of their bottom-up stock selection decisions, constrained by appropriate risk controls.

MLAM's worldwide approach to equity investing uses a philosophy of identifying relative value among individual stocks and stock markets by focusing primarily on two variables: reinvestment rate and the price-to-book value ratio. There are seven additional screens employed to further refine the process. The factors used to identify value include price-to-cash flow, price-to-earnings ratios, past and future earnings growth and dividend payouts. For asset allocation, a country whose market valuation measurements seem consistently above or below world averages or its own historical averages are over or under-weighted accordingly. The degrees of over or under-weighting are determined by relative economic prospects as measured by the outlook for GNP, inflation and interest rates of each country and their impact on currency movements. By combining a value approach to individual stock selection with asset allocation by country, the firm seeks to achieve consistent performance relative to international equity indexes. MLAM combines top-down and bottom-up analysis and uses proprietary models as part of their research process. Their funds are team-managed.

AIM’s investment process is the product of their “Focus on Change” philosophy and combines asset allocation, security selection, portfolio construction, dealing and risk management. They carry out rigorous research in all the major financial markets. Their dedicated risk management team measures and monitors risk across all portfolios. Each fund has a clearly defined specification setting out the parameters within which the portfolio manager can invest.
