Investment Return Maximization Strategies

Paul Marsiglio of Fovere, a service provider at the marcus evans Canadian Institutional Investment Summit 2010, discusses investment return maximization strategies.

2010-09-09
QUEBEC, CANADA, September 09, 2010 (Press-News.org) Interview with: Paul Marsiglio, President and Chief Executive Officer, Fovere

Staying overly macro will always lead to mediocre results whilst digging into initiatives or projects, doing greater due diligence should lead to better performance, advises Paul Marsiglio, President and Chief Executive Officer at Fovere. Acting as if one is buying the business instead of trading securities, could reap better results, he adds. From a service provider attending the marcus evans Canadian Institutional Investment Summit 2010, taking place in Gatineau-Ottawa, Quebec, October 25-27, Marsiglio highlights the risk mitigation and investment strategies he would recommend to Canadian institutional investors, and the promising areas in equities and the real estate market.

How can institutional investors maximize returns?

Paul Marsiglio: The world is truly global and highly correlated, and it seems to me that institutions' own set of criteria are restricting them from maximizing returns. We would recommend that institutional managers begin to think and act in a more entrepreneurial fashion and to seek entrepreneurial managers to invest with or in.

Staying overly macro will always lead to mediocre results whilst digging into initiatives or projects, doing greater due diligence, should lead to better performance.

What is your outlook on equities? What are some of the most promising areas to invest or gain exposure in at the moment?

Paul Marsiglio: Viewing equities on a macro basis is not very productive. Instead, acting as if one is buying the business, rather than trading securities, should lead to better performance. Greater due diligence on management teams and the industry of particular companies can expose many great opportunities. There are several companies currently trading at single digit price earnings ratios with significant historic double digit returns on equities in Canada. These are looking historically cheap - coupled with intensive micro analysis, they can and should lead to strong positive performance.

What are some of the up and coming investment areas?

Paul Marsiglio: Clean energy and infrastructure - governments are providing stimulus and are biased towards green/clean energy and infrastructure. The Ontario government's recent Feed-In Tariff Program for solar generated electricity is a great example of long-term, above average yields backed by a strong covenant. Beyond the Province's FIT Program, clean energy has strong long-term fundamentals given the rising cost of energy associated with limited supply, and technological innovation driving costs down and performance up.

How do you view real estate in the current environment, and going forward for the next few years?

Paul Marsiglio: Real estate in Canada as an asset class has had a great run since 1996; there was a small interruption in late 2008 and early 2009, but since then it has resumed its bullish run. Interest rates are near historic lows and lenders are lending again. Capitalization rates are also near historic lows. There seems to be little upside from here and more downside developing. We believe mortgages are a safer way of participating in real estate, offering a margin of safety to investors.

What risk mitigation strategies would you suggest?

Paul Marsiglio: Risk mitigation is much ado about everything related to due diligence. Greater research analysis and face time with business owners, managers, suppliers, customers, and industry participants, is the only sure way of mitigating risks. Fancy measures that seek to allocate capital to different areas are no replacement for good honest hard work and due diligence.
