JPAM-UK is an active, long-term manager which seeks to generate positive excess return through both a bottom-up approach emphasizing security selection and a top-down approach focusing on macro investment themes and trends to aid in determining sector weightings, currency, and yield curve weighting where appropriate. Each team has a distinct approach for analyzing their sector; utilizing a combination of fundamental, quantitative and technical inputs to identify buy and sell targets.

NIM is a thematic, team-oriented manager which conducts in-house research to identify themes and trends that influence, or are likely to influence, economies or stock markets globally. The firm focuses their research on the areas they believe are most likely to yield the best performing securities. Portfolio managers construct equity and fixed-income model portfolios in teams. For equity portfolios, the most important aspect of portfolio construction is stock selection as bottom-up decisions drive, to a large extent, a portfolio’s allocation to countries, sectors, and currencies. Their fixed income portfolios utilize both their top-down view of the world’s bond and currency markets and bottom-up investment selection process.
