Equity Funds

AXA Investment Manager's equity fund investment expertise offers clients two principle active investment strategies – qualitative and quantitative – both of which are clearly focused on generating consistent investment returns and long-term capital growth.

Both strategies adopt a fundamental, bottom-up approach to stock selection which entails thorough company analysis, with the aim of identifying those likely to provide investment outperformance. However, they differ in the way in which company research and analysis is applied.

Qualitative equity expertise: AXA Framlington

Our qualitative strategy involves specialist Fund managers applying in-depth research and analysis of company fundamentals in order to identify the drivers of long-term, sustainable growth.

Quantitative equity expertise: AXA Rosenberg

Our quantitative strategy utilises proprietary technology to integrate our entire research and investment process. This allows decisions that are informed and objective and in turn, provide the potential for consistent, superior returns.

Beyond these two principle strategies, we also provide exposure to equities via:

AXA Distribution Fund Range

The highly successful Distribution Fund range adopts a disciplined, long-term approach to asset allocation and stock selection. Key to the success of the Distribution range is a core focus on quality, blue-chip equities. The Funds invest in those companies offering robust business models, global business exposure and experienced management teams. Attractive, sustainable dividend payments are also a key consideration.
