Investment Philosophy

Abakkus Asset Manager LLP is an Indian asset manager that focuses on alpha. It was founded in 2018 by Sunil Singhania and is named after the simplest ancient computing equipment, the abacus. Abakkus’ objective and vision is to become one of India’s most respected and successful asset managers.

The Abakkus portfolio beliefs have been moulded by this philosophy:-

  • Profitability is predicted to expand faster than the market average for growth companies.
  • Stocks with acceptable growth prospects that are fundamentally undervalued for value companies.
  • Buy and hold: Invest in stocks as if you were investing in a company. Invest as if you’re a partner.
  • Small businesses with a scalable business plan that have the potential to grow into large cap enterprises over time
  • Research from the bottom up with a focus on the balance sheet.
  • Earnings, Earnings, Earnings, Earnings, Earnings, Earnings, Earnings, Earnings

  • Diversified all-cap portfolios without regard to benchmarks.
  • Fundamental concepts were chosen via a bottom-up methodology.
  • allocation of large-cap stocks based on a top-down sector approach with stability in mind.
  • Alpha results from exposure to businesses with sustainable operations and strong ROEs in a larger market.
  • Try to build alpha and wealth by purchasing with a normal holding time of 3-5 years.
    15:15:15 Restrictions: Invest mostly in businesses meeting at least two of these three requirements.

Risk

 

  • Concentration risk: Diversified portfolio of around 30 companies, single stock exposure limited to less than 10% and sector exposure limited below 30% at the time of investment.
  • Company risk – The best way to handle company risk is by knowing in-depth details about what you own and why you own. There is no substitute for this. Our uncompromised focus on balance sheet and fundamental numbers will help us in mitigating the same.
  • Valuation risk – While there is no right or wrong valuation number, we are definitely wary of overpaying. We would be maintaining discipline on this.
  • Market risk – We would be focusing more on the portfolio than trying the futile guess over where markets are headed. While we would be definitely monitoring the market, we believe the best way to handle market risk is by being patient.
  • Liquidity risk – Liquidity can be a near term risk in broader market, however the flexi cap portfolio is designed to take care of this, with the ability to move across large cap and broader markets providing stability and liquidity to the portfolio. We would urge investors to factor in a 3–5 years time horizon for investing.
