The GARP style stands for Growth at a reasonable price. Companies of sufficient size and liquidity that meet quantitative criteria relating to sales growth and earnings per share over the medium and long term, based on past data as well as estimates for the future, are selected.

Next, a valuation filter is applied to ensure that only companies with a reasonable valuation are selected. The valuation filter then ranks companies by price, comparing their capitalization and/or enterprise value with their sales (EV/Sales), operating income (EV/EBIT), net income (P/E) and free cash flow (P/FCF), to retain only the least expensive.

Several geographical zones are proposed. The global list includes companies listed on the world's main financial markets. The other lists are regional: North America (USA, Canada), Europe, Asia (Japan, Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong), Emerging Markets, UK, France, Germany, Switzerland, Netherlands and Italy.
