Our Core Values
The Formatic Asset Management Limited is built around four core principles: Trusted Partnership, Performance, Innovation and Client-Centricity. These principles guide how we invest, serve our clients and work with our colleagues and partners.
Trusted Partnership
We recognise the responsibility that comes with managing our clients’ capital. We seek to earn and sustain their trust through integrity, transparency and accountability. Across our teams and the wider capital market, we value diverse perspectives, collaboration and shared professional standards.
Performance
We pursue meaningful results through disciplined investment decisions, rigorous analysis and a considered approach to risk. Our focus is on delivering long-term value aligned with our clients’ objectives.
Innovation
We embrace new ideas and technology to improve how clients access and experience investment management. By continually refining our processes and solutions, we aim to make investing more convenient, transparent and accessible.
Client-Centricity
We start by listening. Understanding each client’s objectives, circumstances and evolving needs allows us to provide thoughtful advice and responsive service. We look beyond individual accounts to build lasting relationships, supporting our clients throughout their investment journey.
Our approach
Good questions.Considered decisions.
An investment conversation is about more than a product. It is also about your purpose, your circumstances and the choices ahead.
Purpose
Begin with your priorities.
What are you working towards? Your goals and the time you have in mind give the investment conversation its starting point.
Perspective
Put risk in context.
Investment decisions involve uncertainty. A useful discussion considers your objectives, circumstances and ability to bear risk alongside the possibilities.
Clarity
Make room for questions.
Clear explanations help you understand what is being discussed. There should be room to explore how an investment works, its risks and what it may mean for your needs.
