Scientific Investing

Our analysis of nearly a 100 years of investment research & practice, led to the conclusion that value investing philosophy with its focus on minimizing risks (“Safety First”) can deliver true alpha over the long-term.

Scientific Investing is built on decades of deep research on value investing philosophy and the first principles of investment management.

Scientific Investing generates investment strategies which focus on generating alpha from safety.  While surprising to academic finance, it is not at all so for a true Grahamian who understands the concept of “margin of safety”.  The higher the safety, the more the alpha.

OmniScience Capital’s Scientific Investing Framework is the culmination of a multi-decadal immersion in understanding what has worked in investment management, and practicing it—primarily a risk-averse mindset while operating in risky asset classes—and a scientific mindset which requires focus on root causes and a reproducible, replicable approach.  Scientific Investing focuses on the most important and powerful causes of investment returns and creates investment grade equity portfolios on any investment universe.  In short,Scientific Investing focuses on buying Supernormal companies at Supernormal prices, thus directing the portfolio towards Supernormal returns, i.e. alpha.
