Because of our clear and simple investment philosophy
Which aims to capture the performance of the real economy without giving in to the whims of the moment's financial fads.

Because of our clear and simple investment philosophy

The BCGE’s investment philosophy is founded on eight key principles:

  1. Finance is an applied art, not just a quantitative technique
  2. Performance is produced by the real economy and its companies
  3. Good asset allocation is the result of critical and selective choices
  4. The best investment values are found through open architecture
  5. High diversification increases returns and reduces risk
  6. The structural simplicity of a portfolio makes it more robust
  7. It is up to each investor to define his or her own objectives, time horizon and comfort with risk
  8. It is the investment philosophy that determines a portfolio's performance, not the size of the bank or the individual talent of its managers.

A proven investment strategy
  • BCGE's investment strategy is based on a top-down approach, which consists of determining the main economic trends in order to derive forecasts concerning main financial variables (interest rates, equity markets, currencies).
  • These forecasts in turn affect how assets are allocated among the asset classes in current use (equities, bonds, money market investments).
  • Within each asset class, allocation is essentially based on geographical, currency and sector criteria.
  • The investment strategy is reviewed at least once every quarter. Its forecast horizon ranges from three to twelve months.
Essential stock selection guidelines
To help you capture the performance of the best external managers

Essential stock selection guidelines
  • Bonds are selected according to the quality of the borrowers.
  • Equity investments are made through investment funds, selected on the market according to a totally open architecture principle. The BCGE Group therefore delegates to the best external managers the task of selecting the best equities available on the market.
  • The funds selected are primarily actively managed in order to generate additional performance relative to their benchmark index.
Portfolios continually managed in a standardised fashion
By a team of experts equipped with professional tools.

  • You will receive detailed information on a regular basis, whether on market developments and how your Best of portfolio is performing in comparison, or on the quarterly performance of your mandate (net of fees).
  • Your adviser will get in touch with you on a regular basis and will be at your disposal for any questions you may have or in case your circumstances change, as well as to arrange a meeting for an annual review.
