A WORD FROM THE PEMBROKE TEAM

 
In this issue, we are introducing the new quarterly format that the Pembroke team will use to keep you informed about our perspective on the markets, the performance of our strategies, and our active portfolio management process.

This new format begins with the Investment Commentary Outlook Series, in which the team discusses current market trends. This series also provides an opportunity to explore specific topics in more detail. In our current article, When Information Is Plentiful, Discipline Matters Most, we discuss the challenges of short-term market prediction and dealing with an overabundance of information.

With the Strategy Performance Commentary, we have combined what used to be five articles into one. The aim is to provide you with a better overview of the progress of our strategies.

We are also introducing the Active Investment Series. These articles are intended to offer you insight into the decision-making processes of the Investment Team. These processes are there to ensure that your money—and our money as investors in the same strategies—grows in the long term.

Sincerely,

The Pembroke Team

 

 

IT IS A MARATHON, NOT A SPRINT

 
As the Winter Games in Italy draw closer, attention across the sporting world is sharpening. For athletes, coaches and national programs, this is the phase where preparation becomes more deliberate and choices more consequential.

While Pembroke is not an Olympic sponsor, we are proud to support Canadian athletes and the organizations that develop them, both on and off the world stage.
