SPO Partners uses a long-term, value-oriented approach. The firm deploys capital by making concentrated investments in public and private businesses that are often selling at substantial discounts to SPO's view of their long-term intrinsic value. Preservation of capital is a central investment tenet. They believe this investment approach minimizes investment risk by combining rigorous, value-based investment analysis with a strong bias toward owning good businesses with proprietary franchise characteristics and owner-oriented managements.

Scout Capital Management's investment objective is to maximize risk adjusted returns over the long-term, primarily through investments in equity securities and opportunistically in credit instruments and securities. The funds' investments may include U.S. or non-U.S., long or short positions in publicly traded or privately issued or negotiated common stocks, preferred stocks, stock warrants and rights, corporate debt, bonds, notes or other debentures or debt participations, convertible securities, fixed income securities, swaps, currencies, options, futures contracts, commodities and forward contracts, derivative instruments, fund interests and other securities or financial instruments including those of investment companies. Scout sometimes takes large positions, which can result in highly concentrated client portfolios. Scout generally makes capital allocation decisions based on bottom-up fundamental research. They generally focus on opportunities within certain business models or industries which they believe they maintain some specialized knowledge. Scout maintains a flexible approach with regard to determining net exposure, shifting the net exposure depending on the relative attractiveness of long versus short opportunities in the market. In general, the firm seeks to maintain a net long bias.
