At AMP Capital we believe company earnings and sustainability are key factors contributing to returns from Australian small cap investing. Our series of research papers delves into why it is critical to focus on a company’s delivery of actual earnings and identify where the company is in its earnings cycle. In addition, why sustainability factors play an integral role in a company’s long-term value, more so than the traditional tangible factors that are typically considered.

7yInteresting thoughts Phil, I look forward to reading some of these. In our sustainability benchmarking work we find disclosure and data quality issues more of an issue for smaller caps so I would be keen to learn how you guys manage this issue. Perhaps a chat over coffee would be easier.
