Mercator Asset Management (MAM) specializes in managing international equity portfolios for institutional clients. The firm seeks to add value primarily through stock selection and secondarily through identification of countries and geographical regions offering attractive investment opportunities. In constructing a diversified portfolio, MAM seeks to maximize the total return for their clients, taking into account changes in the market prices of investments and changes in the values of currencies in which client assets are denominated. They generally emphasize equity investments of developed/emerging markets. MAM’s philosophy is value investing with bottom-up stock analysis. They seek to invest in stocks that are undervalued and are out-of-favor/overlooked by most investors, with the goal of achieving superior long-term performance. The investment process for this strategy is a team effort that relies on fundamental stock analysis to identify stocks with value characteristics. Fundamental analysis adds value by identifying which stocks they believe will outperform and should be purchased. MAM looks for catalysts for stock price appreciation and seeks to identify opportunities that are being underappreciated and/or overlooked.
