At LSWM, research drives every decision we make. We invest with discipline, aiming to grow and protect your capital through a high-quality, lower-risk framework. As a fully independent, management-owned firm, we answer only to our clients and are free from external pressure or product-driven agendas.
Our investment philosophy is rooted in the principles of fundamental value investing. We seek out exceptional businesses whose intrinsic value we believe exceeds their current market price. Put simply, we look for quality companies trading for less than they’re truly worth. This approach creates a “margin of safety” — a core concept championed by Benjamin Graham, the mentor of Warren Buffett — which helps preserve capital and build wealth over the long term.
We never outsource investment decisions to third parties. All of our research and analysis is done in-house.
As a management-owned firm, we have no external pressure from corporations, product providers or financial institutions.
Our interests are fully aligned with yours. We invest in the same opportunities as our clients.
We create a “margin of safety” by only investing in companies whose intrinsic value is greater than their share price.
