OUR INVESTMENT STRATEGY


"Successful insurance investing requires a disciplined, methodical approach"
- PhiloSmith & Co. Investment Philosophy


  • Bottom-up stock picking
  • Fundamental analysis and extensive on-site management meetings
  • To seek companies with an above-average outlook selling at price/earnings and price/book ratios below sector averages
  • To buy stock in which the risk of loss is relatively limited and the chances of success are superior to the market
  • Ownership by management/insiders should be meaningful
  • Disciplined sell strategy based on "red flags"
