What Sets Us Apart

A Unique Approach to Equity Income

The DCM US Equity Income portfolio aims to outperform the S&P 500’s total return after fees, while providing a dividend yield higher than the index. This dual focus enhances returns and serves as a risk mitigation tool for the portfolio.

The strategy is structured around two complementary buckets: a concentrated core for high-conviction ideas and a yield-focused segment for stable income generation. The portfolio manager maintains a significant personal investment in the strategy, ensuring alignment with investor objectives and confidence in its long-term success.

Concentrated Core Bucket

  • Investment ideas are generated through both quantitative and qualitative screening, with only those meeting rigorous fundamental research standards considered for inclusion.
  • A conservative valuation process is applied, incorporating Discounted Cash Flow models and other tools to ensure attractive entry points.
  • Portfolio weights are derived by a combination of valuation, risk/reward potential, and business quality.
  • There are no constraints on position or sector size. Position buys are sized based on upside potential relative to downside risk. Position sales are driven by a thesis change, price appreciation making valuation no longer attractive, or better opportunities to allocate capital elsewhere
  • Opportunistic trading is utilized to take advantage of price dislocations in the market.

Yield Bucket

  • This part of the portfolio is designed to adapt to broader economic conditions, focusing on income-generating investments that perform well in different phases of the economic cycle. Investments are adjusted as needed to align with changing market dynamics and opportunities.
  • Typical investments include stable, income-generating sectors such as financial, REITs, energy infrastructure, telecoms, healthcare, utilities, and consumer staples.
  • The total portfolio yield is driven by selective investments in high-quality companies with attractive valuations and large dividends.
  • Tactical adjustments within the yield bucket focus on capturing additional growth opportunities beyond dividend income
