Why Consistency matters

Consistency is a quality that M&G Investments prides itself on. It’s a major factor that has led to investment success for our clients and ourselves And it’s also about the inputs as well as the outputs: being consistently disciplined, consistently diligent and consistently determined. That’s because in investing, it doesn’t matter how good you are on a given day, you have to be consistently good day after day, month after month, decade after decade. It’s this quality that has helped us achieve consistent top fund performance year after year. In turn, this has enabled our clients to improve their lives.

Consistently strong returns

Over nearly three decades we have used the same valuation-based philosophy, applying it unemotionally every day and ignoring the short-term swings of the market. We have also always deliberately chosen to incorporate a wide variety of investment ideas in our portfolios, carefully diversifying risk rather than betting on a small number of assets or forecasts The resulting strong performance track records of our funds confirm the correctness of our belief in consistency
