About Ruffer
OUR AIM IS TO DELIVER GOOD POSITIVE RETURNS — WHATEVER HAPPENS IN FINANCIAL MARKETS
To invest well, we need to take on risk. With risk comes great responsibility.
Our preoccupation is with not losing money, rather than charging headlong for growth. It’s by putting safety first that we have made good money for our clients. Through boomand bust. For over 28 years. If we keep doing our job well, we will protect our clients’ capital – and increase its real value substantially.
We believe that investing responsibly will lead to better long-term outcomes for our clients
ESG factors form one part of our fundamental analysis. We have a collaborative research process between the research analysts, members of the responsible investment team, and responsible investment specialists. To fulfil our duty to act as responsible stewards of our clients’ assets, we use our judgement to determine when to engage and how to vote at shareholder meetings to best protect the economic interests of our clients, while remaining cognisant of the impact on all stakeholders. Engagement with the companies we invest in not only gives us an opportunity to deepen our understanding of the business, but also is an effective tool to achieve meaningful change.
