Unwavering Focus on Risk Management
Oaktree is unified by a single investment philosophy, placing primary emphasis on risk control and consistency, which has helped deliver attractive outcomes for investors throughout market cycles.
Primacy of risk control
If we avoid the losers, the winners take care of themselves
Benefits of specialization
Our team members’ experience and expertise give us a substantial advantage
Emphasis on consistency
A superior record is best built on a high batting average rather than the hope that great years will outweigh dismal ones
Macro-forecasting not critical to investing
Superior knowledge of companies and their securities is the best foundation for consistently excellent performance
Importance of market inefficiency
It is only in less-efficient markets that hard work and skill are likely to produce superior returns
Disavowal of market timing
The ability to correctly time markets is limited at best; we are fully invested whenever we can find attractive investments
