Overview

Managed according to the philosophy of the STANLIB Systematic Solutions Investment team since June 2023, it is managed with no style bias with the objective to deliver consistent risk-adjusted returns and build long-term wealth for our clients.

Investment Philosophy

STANLIB Systematic Solution’s overarching investment philosophy is that our unemotional investment approach seeks to create portfolios that will achieve our clients’ desired outcomes in a transparent, cost-effective and intuitive manner. Our investment approach is active, fundamental investing achieved in a disciplined, consistent, and systematic way, which eliminates behavioural bias. We believe that identifiable, persistent and systematic drivers of returns (i.e. investment styles) exist in the global equity markets, as well as the South African equity market. We see this rational and pioneering approach as the natural evolution of equity investing.

Why Us?

STANLIB Systematic Solutions is strongly resourced to be the centre of excellence within the greater STANLIB in modern systematic portfolio management approaches which uses cutting-edge technology, progressive evidence-based data analysis, and innovative portfolio construction techniques.

We believe that by taking a systematic, evidence-based, disciplined investment approach, we create portfolios that achieve clients’ desired outcomes in a transparent, cost-effective, and intuitive manner.
