What is risk anyway? A story of different kinds of leverage

The financial industry has countless ways of looking at risk, many of which we understand, but few we fully agree with. Our definition of risk is simple; we see risk as the chance of a permanent loss of capital. This view, however, is far from universal.

The investor’s blind spot; a company’s culture

Assessing a company’s culture is a step overlooked by most investors. Company culture is seen as an afterthought in the determination of the intrinsic value of the firm: crunching years of financial data has preference over something as intangible as a firm’s culture.

Credit quarterly newsletter

Kempen’s Credit team immerses itself in the credit markets on a daily basis. As these markets can change rapidly, it’s vital for the team to be on top of all the latest developments, understand what’s going on and adjust its portfolios accordingly if necessary. The team receives regular enquiries from our clients about its views on the credit markets and where the best opportunities currently lie, so we publish a quarterly credit newsletter providing the team’s views on a topic of interest. In this edition, we talk about how the team integrates responsibility throughout its investment process.
