​The core of investment is to determine the symmetry between risk and return: low risk, low return; high risk, high return — a symmetry between the two. At Baobab Foundation, however, we believe the core of true professional investing lies in identifying deviations from this symmetry. When markets, for various reasons, present asymmetric pricing where low risk is paired with high return, that is precisely our opportunity to generate excess returns above market averages.

​

We invest with discipline. We have the patience to wait for the right price, much like a lion crouched in the grass, waiting for the optimal moment to strike. We would rather miss an opportunity than rush in recklessly. We place the preservation of capital above all else. Risk control is the soul of all investing.

​

We seek a particular way of life — one in which we do not try to predict the price of oil, speculate on the outcome of wars, or fret over every world event. We firmly believe that all bad things will come to an end, and tomorrow will always be brighter.

​

We love investing because we stay true to our principles and enjoy the process. We hope our investors can enjoy a more relaxed and fulfilling life through their partnership with Baobab Foundation.
