Our Philosophy
How we invest — because principles matter. Our philosophy is built on four guiding principles that shape everything we do: diversification, flexibility, active management, and a focus on intrinsic value.
We areAssenagon.
As one of Europe’s fastest-growing asset managers, we measure ourselves by a single benchmark: the satisfaction of our clients. That’s why everything we do is guided by four core principles – not as mere slogans, but as values we actively embody in our daily work.
Investment Principles
Diversification
Monocultures are vulnerable to crises – in nature as well as in investing. True stability comes from diversity. That’s a principle we firmly believe in.
Flexibility
We don’t know what the future holds. What seems certain today may be a mistake tomorrow. That’s why continuity must go hand in hand with a willingness to adapt.
Active Management
Patience and calm are essential virtues in investing. But so are curiosity, alertness, and the ability to act swiftly – so that emerging trends don’t pass us by.
Intrinsic Value
Quick wins may sound tempting. But in the long run, quality prevails. That’s why we conduct in-depth analysis and take a long-term perspective.

Independence is part of our DNA. We founded Assenagon in 2007 to serve our clients with full commitment – without compromise. That promise still holds true today.
Intuition may yield short-term results, but not over time. That’s why we invest based on facts and supported by technology – always guided by the experience and specialized expertise of our portfolio management teams.
