JPMIM seeks to generate positive excess return through both a bottom-up approach emphasizing security selection and a top-down approach focusing on macro investment themes and trends to aid in determining sector weightings, currency, and yield curve weighting where appropriate. The firm offers a broad range of US, non-US and global investment management products and provides different strategies that span the full spectrum of asset classes including equity, fixed-income, cash liquidity, currency, real estate, hedge funds and private equity.

Wafra seeks to provide long-term investment return solutions that span not just years, but generations. The firm pursues two broad investment styles which can be further refined into strategies targeting specific asset classes: (1) direct investments; and (2) investments in underlying funds on behalf of one or more advisory clients. They invest across a number of asset classes, including strategic partnerships, alternative finance, real assets, real estate, liquid markets, and private equity and venture capital.

Victory Capital-IM is a diversified global investment management firm offering a wide array of independent investment approaches and innovative solutions designed to drive better investment outcomes.

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.
