Refers to a portfolio management strategy where the manager makes specific investments with the goal of outperforming an

investment benchmark index. In passive management, investors expect a return that closely replicates the investment weighting

and returns of a benchmark index and will often invest in an index fund.

Benefits of Active Portfolio Management

Opportunity for Outperformance

Additional Risk Management

Ability to adjust portfolios to a changing environment

Opportunity for investors to find the “right match”

400 men at least 250 years to make a mistake this big?”

We view ourselves as owners of businesses:

• Market inefficiencies present numerous opportunities to identify quality businesses that we believe are mispriced

• Independent research of a company’s business, industry supply/demand, competitive positioning and management

uncovers opportunities

We predicate our intensive, original research on:

• A global perspective to enhance understanding of markets and companies

• A long-term investment horizon to allow for inherent value to be realized

• Value as a prerequisite, not a philosophy

• Bottom-up, fundamental analysis to gain a thorough understanding of a company’s business and valuation

• Industry-tailored valuation metrics to assess distinct industry characteristics and success drivers

36

• Far-reaching investment experience in global markets with a long record of success

• Searching for market anomalies with industry specialists who have diverse backgrounds and distinct perspectives

• Group vetting to challenge ideas and develop high conviction

Please consider all risks carefully before investing. The accounts managed according to the Global All-Cap investment strategy are subject to certain risks such as market,

investment style, interest rate, deflation, and illiquidity risk. Investments in small and mid-capitalization companies also involve greater risk and portfolio price volatility than

investments in larger capitalization stocks. Investing in non-U.S. markets, including emerging and frontier markets, involves certain additional risks, including potential currency

fluctuations and controls, restrictions on foreign investments, less governmental supervision and regulation, less liquidity, less disclosure, and the potential for market volatility,

expropriation, confiscatory taxation, and social, economic and political instability. Investments in energy and natural resources companies are especially affected by

developments in the commodities markets, the supply of and demand for specific resources, raw materials, products and services, the price of oil and gas, exploration and

production spending, government regulation, economic conditions, international political developments, energy conservation efforts and the success of exploration projects. There

can be no assurances that investment objectives will be achieved.
