Investment philosophy

REQ Capital believes value creation drives shareholder performance. We seek to find companies which are able to reinvest capital at high returns over time. These compounders generate strong cash flows and shareholder returns.

In order to replicate, or even improve, strong historical value creation we need to invest in strong corporate cultures. A strong, enduring culture is the single biggest competitive advantage in a fast-changing world. To form an opinion on culture we need to get insights below the ranks of top management.

REQ Capital has developed a detailed framework and process based on both qualitative and quantitative analysis to get a better cultural understanding. The qualitive research is based on a large number of interviews with different stakeholders and the quantitative part is based on machine learning and big data. Our approach to investing enables us to invest with better insight.

Our investment philosophy is deeply described in our book «Investing in Value Creators» written by investment director, Oddbjørn Dybvad. Our investing experience and our investment principles are described in our investor manual.

The full version of our book “Investing In Value Creators” can be provided by request.
