Platinum Asset Management

A contrarian, long-term investing philosophy

Platinum is a $20 billion Australia-based equity manager established in 1994.  Platinum has one core investment style – to seek out companies whose true worth and prospects are yet to be fully recognized by the market. Historical results show that the approach has worked in different economic climates and withstood the test of business cycles.  With a focus on achieving strong long-term absolute returns (rather than simply by comparison to a benchmark index), Platinum looks beyond short-term market turbulence caused by events of a transient nature to seek out ‘unfashionable’ companies whose actual worth is greater than the value implied in their present share price.  Platinum offers: Global, Asia, Europe, and Japan long/short equity strategies, as well as sector focused strategies in Healthcare, Technology, and Consumer brands.
