GQG’s US Equity strategy is an unconstrained, concentrated portfolio of high-quality US companies with durable earnings. Their focus is on forward-looking quality, rather than companies that have done well historically. This view of quality allows them to strip away labels like value and growth in favour of long-term compounding.
