Investment Overview

ClearBridge All Cap Growth Portfolios (ACG) seeks long-term capital appreciation through investment in large-, mid-, and small- capitalization stocks that have the potential for above average long-term earnings and/or cash flow growth.

Investment Philosophy

We believe that:

  • Competitive returns may be achieved by investing in a diversified portfolio of large-, medium-, and small-capitalization stocks that have the potential for above-average long-term growth and returns.
  • An intensive, bottom-up investment process can help find inefficiently priced companies with strong fundamentals, incentive-driven management teams, dominant positions in niche markets, and/or goods and services customers are practically compelled to use.
  • Consistency in our investment process, research, performance and client service is the key to excellence.
Portfolio Positioning
  • Core growth option, which can be complemented by other investments or asset classes for further diversification.
  • Designed for investors looking for a growth portfolio that invests across multiple market capitalizations with a buy-and-hold strategy. This strategy does not force buy or sell decisions based on market capitalization. The potential result may be reduced portfolio turnover over time.
Key Differentiators
  • The strategy combines the expertise of five seasoned portfolio managers.
  • High-conviction stock selection that offers potential for growth across market cycles.
  • Portfolio managers evaluate each position daily and may decide to invest portfolios gradually or all at once based on market conditions, valuations and/or factors they consider to be relevant.

ACG portfolios invest primarily in large-capitalization stocks, investing much smaller portions of the portfolios in small- and mid-capitalization company stocks. Market, security and/or other investment considerations may result in higher turnover from time to time. Also, all capitalization ranges will not necessarily be represented in an individual account.

Diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against a loss. There is no guarantee that the Portfolio's objectives will be met.

Investment Process

Investment Process

Step 1 - Idea Generation

Identify companies with strong business models, capital structures and management teams, generally with market capitalizations of $3 billion or greater.

Step 2 - Fundamental Analysis

Determine valuation considering the size of a business’s addressable market, free cash flow yield, P/E, EV/Sales, PEG Ratio. Identify key risks and potential downside.

Step 3 -  Portfolio Construction

Actively select investments across the growth spectrum, allocated into three growth buckets (Cyclical, Stable and Select) with distinct risk/return characteristics. Managers are willing to pay a premium for companies with sustainable growth characteristics and superior ROIC.

Step 4 - Risk Management/Evaluation Discipline

Understand security level and portfolio level risks. Actively review investment rationales, position sizes and diversification metrics.

The investment process may change over time. The characteristics set forth above are intended as a general illustration of some of the criteria the strategy team considers in selecting securities for client portfolios. There is no guarantee investment objectives will be achieved.

Risks

What Are The Key Risks?

All investments involve risks, including possible loss of principal. To the extent the portfolio invests in a concentration of certain securities, regions or industries, it is subject to increased volatility. Small- and mid-cap stocks involve greater risks and volatility than large-cap stocks.
