Our values

Performance is born from the combination of talent and method

To invest in a complex world, our managers work as a team and use our methods and analytical tools, which have been developed over many years and are constantly being enhanced.

Faced with the three major current trends – protean globalisation, irresistible digitalisation and increasing regulation – we combine our bottom-up and top-down visions in our investment processes. This differentiating angle is decisive in detecting the growth potential of a company, understanding its life cycle, analysing its valuation and thus selecting the most promising investment vehicles.

Every day, we seek to anticipate and detect the major trends in international markets and attractive themes.

Our permanent priority is to devote all our expertise and resources to our clients in order to achieve the best performance and offer them the best service.

Our DNA is resolutely "Investor driven" and SRI

Our collegial, qualitative and quantitative approach provides our managers with a solid foundation in a rapidly changing financial environment.

At Montpensier Finance, we are convinced that extra-financial criteria – environmental, social and governance (ESG) – are long-term performance drivers for companies. Our role as an investor is to favour companies that have chosen to have a positive impact on the world in which we live, while creating value. A the end of 2022, 95% of our open-ended funds are labeled and 67% have SFDR 9 classification.

We integrate environmental, social and governance criteria that are essential to better take into account long-term perspectives and invest in a 21st century characterised by the greater involvement of civil society. This is how we created the Fondation Montpensier.
