Investment philosophy
Approach-
Green Lantern’s investment approach is based on the BMV model of investing, 1) Business, 2) Management and 3) Valuation, in that particular order.
1)Business: Identifying and investing in the right business is very important, businesses with large market opportunities, strong competitive characteristics and high ROEs. Good businesses over a period of time tend to deliver superior returns.
2)Management: Identifying exceptional managers or management teams running these businesses, having industry leader mindset and hunger for growth driven by rational capital allocation.
3)Valuation: Last but clearly not the least is paying the right value for these businesses. Staying ahead of others helps a lot in getting these opportunities at a high margin of safety. Margin of safety helps in downside protection and capital preservation.
They believe investment is as much about Psychology as about the economics of it. Their research process helps them stay ahead of others and focus on asymmetric risk rewards and earning inflection points with high margin of safety.
Strengths as mentioned by Green lantern capital –
- 80+ years of cumulative market experience, along with diverse backgrounds.
- Deep understanding of global macro and emerging trends.
- In depth knowledge of Indian businesses, promoters and companies.
- Right temperament to ride the winners and realising full potential of our investments.
- Being greedy when others are fearful and being fearful when others are greedy. We are not compulsive investors
Philosophy –
It is their strong belief that “Time in the Market” is more important than “Timing the Market”. It is near impossible to consistently time the market, so rather than getting swayed by the short term volatility, they focus themselves on identifying large macro-economic trends and finding businesses capable of capitalizing on them to create long term wealth. Rather than focusing on meagre outcomes, this helps to catch asymmetric rewards, earning inflection points, faster growth for longer and all this with high margins of safety.
Additionally, this is achieved with a risk conscious approach. Risk for them emanates from paying a high price for the businesses, volatility in earnings and cash flows or highly levered Balance Sheet or over ownership of their stock.
