Founded in 1989, Orbis is a specialized global investment firm with C$53 billion in assets under management as at 31 Mar 2024. Our core skill is bottom-up stock selection using a fundamental, long-term and contrarian investment philosophy, and our primary offering includes four long-only equity strategies: Global (ACWI), International (ACWI ex-US), Emerging Markets, and Japan. Our flagship Global Equity Strategy has outperformed the MSCI ACWI Index by 4.0% p.a. (net of fees) since inception in 1990.
Our firm is structured to reinforce our investment philosophy and build close alignment with our clients. The controlling interest in Orbis is held by a philanthropic foundation established by our founder, which allows the firm to remain privately owned in perpetuity. We view private ownership as critical to ensure we have the freedom to act in the long-term interests of our clients. In addition, we have designed our investment process to emphasize individual decision making and accountability to encourage contrarian thinking. Finally, Orbis’ management and owners invest in the same pools and pay the same fees as our clients. This alignment of interests is reinforced by our unique refundable performance fees through which we refund fees to investors during periods of underperformance.
