Artificial Intelligence (AI) – How is it featuring in our investment thinking?
Market volatility creates a
richer investment
opportunity set in
high-quality companies.
We are alert and open-minded but competitive advantage assessment was

Effective defence to come from:

adapt and invest.
Significant change unsettles
markets – broad based
