Artificial Intelligence (AI) – How are corporates responding?

A notable shift from curiosity to adoption

Significant change in

business processes to

occur.

Use cases evolving: from

simple efficiency to more

complex product

development.

Divergent views on employment

•some see technology roles

AI agents,

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

already key to our investment process.

Effective defence to come from:

•“moats” (proprietary data,

licences, network effects

etc) and

•long term focused

management, prepared to

adapt and invest.

Significant change unsettles

markets – broad based

selling of technology related
