LOGIN REGISTER CONTACT US Home About Us Our Team American Fund Responsible Investment AMERICAN FUND INVESTMENT APPROACH By applying our Investment Philosophy we aim to control the downside risk in each stock in order to produce a compelling risk-adjusted compound rate of return. We implement our philosophy by assessing each stock against a checklist of twenty-nine questions, which analyse key aspects of a business including its financial and competitive position, management and valuation. We pay particular attention to pricing power, corporate culture and the sustainability of returns. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE The Fund aims to increase the value of your investment over the long-term by investing primarily in US equities. The Fund seeks to generate a return above that of the Russell 1000 Net 30% Total Return Index, a broad universe of stocks representative of the US market. Stocks are selected based on their fit with our Investment Philosophy. The composition of the Fund and its performance may look very different to the benchmark.
