Are you looking to build wealth for a more secure financial future?
Platinum offers access to a wide range of investment opportunities, carefully researched, interrogated and combined in portfolios built from the bottom up with the aim of reducing risk and generating long-term wealth for our clients.
Ingrained, instinctive biases – including short-term thinking, loss aversion and a focus on recently acquired information – make it hard for even the smartest investor to avoid common pitfalls.
Find out how these behavioural issues can affect investment decisions – and how Platinum’s investment process works to offset them.
The hardest time to invest is when a company’s share price is falling or stalled due to short-term problems or uncertainty about the future. Yet that is often exactly the right time to invest.
In this video, Co-Chief Investment Officer, Clay Smolinski explains the counter-intuitive nature of Platinum’s investment philosophy and why it’s worked for over 30 years.
Platinum can short-sell stocks in pursuit of incremental performance and to seek added downside protection. Jimmy Su, Portfolio Manager of the Platinum International Technology Fund, looks at five market situations that improve the odds of short-selling success.
At Platinum we see ESG (Environment, Social and Governance) principles as a way to improve our investment decision-making and that's why it is an important part of our investment approach.
In this video, Head of Stewardship, Julia Bailey, discusses how Platinum links investment decision-making to better social outcomes.
At Platinum Asset Management, we believe in Thinking Differently.
We follow a set of core beliefs that guide our investment philosophy, whilst building wealth for our clients over the long term.
We believe that successful investing requires active management, resilience, and a focus on long-term value. By being forensically curious, questioning conventional wisdom and asking better questions, our team unearths investment opportunities in companies whose value and prospects are yet to be fully recognised.
While many are seduced by the temptation of short-term results, we seek sustainable, lasting returns that build wealth based on trust and transparency.
"In markets there are fashions and fads as there are in all fields, but the way investors will react to uncertainty is part of being human, and as such the way in which investors react to short term uncertainty will remain a timeless opportunity."
Andrew Clifford
Co-Chief Investment Officer
"In fishing, to catch a haul, you go where the fish are running. In investing, if you want to find mispriced stocks, you go where decision errors are common. And what are those situations that continuously cause decision errors - it’s where there is some sort of temporary uncertainty, or businesses that are going through significant long term change."
Clay Smolinski
Co-Chief Investment Officer
“Having worked closely with our clients for 30 years, a key consideration to investing with Platinum is to understand what makes our investment approach different to our peers and why that difference matters.”
