RCM is a fundamental, bottom-up, research-driven organization focused on identifying the best risk adjusted investments. The manager places substantial emphasis on original research developed through its Fundamental and GrassrootsSM Research efforts to capitalize on inefficiencies across the market capitalization spectrum. Stock ideas are primarily generated internally, through several resources including the research platform. External research sources are also utilized. Potential investments must meet rigorous growth, quality, and valuation criteria. RCM purchases securities whose growth in earnings, dividends and/or cash flow are expected to provide a total return in excess of the market. Sector/industry selection, as well as capitalization range decisions are primarily a result of identifying superior securities. However, RCM does monitor allocations to ensure they are only taking measured positions away from the benchmark.
